[Machine] "Aisha and Umm Salamah said: The Prophet ﷺ would not fast for a whole month except for Ramadan, except that he used to join it with Shaban so it would be two consecutive months. He used to fast the entire month until we would say, 'He does not break his fast,' and he would break his fast until we would say, 'He does not fast.'"  

الطبراني:١٩٩٢٥حَدَّثَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ ثنا قَيْسُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ وَأُمِّ سَلَمَةَ قَالَتَا «مَا كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَصُومُ شَهْرًا سِوَى رَمَضَانَ إِلَّا شَعْبَانَ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يَصِلُهُ بِرَمَضَانَ فَيَكُونُ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ وَكَانَ يَصُومُ الشَّهْرَ حَتَّى نَقُولَ لَا يُفْطِرُ وَيُفْطِرُ حَتَّى نَقُولَ لَا يَصُومُ»

[Machine] I have not seen the Messenger of Allah ﷺ complete a month of fasting except for the month of Sha'ban. For he used to connect it with Ramadan so that they would be two consecutive months of fasting. He used to fast throughout the month, until we would say that he did not break his fast, and he would break his fast until we would say that he did not fast.  

الدارمي:١٧٨٠أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ قَالَتْ

مَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ صَامَ شَهْرًا تَامًّا إِلَّا شَعْبَانَ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يَصِلُهُ بِرَمَضَانَ لِيَكُونَا شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ وَكَانَ يَصُومُ مِنَ الشَّهْرِ حَتَّى نَقُولَ لَا يُفْطِرُ وَيُفْطِرُ حَتَّى نَقُولَ لَا يَصُومُ
