English translation

2388. It was reported from 'Āishah and Umm Salamah, the wives of the Prophet ﷺ, that they said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would awake in the morning in a state of sexual impurity." — in his narration, 'Abdullāh Al-Adhramī (one of the narrators) said: "during Ramaḍān" — "due to sexual intercourse, not due to a wet dream, then he would fast." (Saḥīḥ) Abū Dāwūd said: So few are those who narrate this statement, meaning; "he would awake in the morning, in a state of sexual impurity, during Ramaḍān." While the Hadīth is only: "That the Prophet ﷺ would awake in the morning in the state of sexual impurity, and he would fast.” صائِمٌ.

2388 - حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، ح وحَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ الْأَذْرَمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ رَبِّهِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، وَأُمِّ سَلَمَةَ زَوْجَيِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُمَا قَالَتَا: «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصْبِحُ جُنُبًا»، - قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ الْأَذْرَمِيُّ فِي حَدِيثِهِ - فِي رَمَضَانَ مِنْ جِمَاعٍ غَيْرِ احْتِلَامٍ، ثُمَّ يَصُومُ "، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: " وَمَا أَقَلَّ مَنْ يَقُولُ: هَذِهِ الْكَلِمَةَ يَعْنِي يُصْبِحُ جُنُبًا فِي رَمَضَانَ، وَإِنَّمَا الْحَدِيثُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يُصْبِحُ جُنُبًا وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ "

Commentary

A fast is not invalid merely because the one fasting began it in a state of impurity.
