English translation

2348. It was reported from Qais bin Talaq, from his father who said: “The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: ‘Eat and drink, and the ascending white light should not prevent you from it, so continue to eat and drink till the redness appears horizontally.’” (Hasan)Abū Dāwūd said: This is among that which the people of Yamamah are alone with (in narrating).

Arabic text

2348 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى، حَدَّثَنَا مُلَازِمُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ، حَدَّثَنِي قَيْسُ بْنُ طَلْقٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «كُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا، وَلَا يَهِيدَنَّكُمُ السَّاطِعُ الْمُصْعِدُ، فَكُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا حَتَّى يَعْتَرِضَ لَكُمُ الْأَحْمَرُ»، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: «هَذَا مِمَّا تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ أَهْلُ الْيَمَامَةِ»

Commentary

That the time to stop eating is when whiteness begins to spread all around. Nevertheless, if the sky is overcast, some kind of redness also becomes evident in the sky. However, as a general rule, it is whiteness alone that appears in the sky.
