2406. It was reported from Qaza'ah, who said: "I came to Abū Sa'eed Al-Khudrī, while he was giving Fatwa for the people and they were surrounding him, so I waited until he was alone. When he was alone, I asked him about fasting during Ramaḍān while traveling. He said: 'We went out with the Prophet ﷺ during Ramaḍān in the Year of the Conquest of Makkah. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ fasted, and we fasted with him until we reached a certain stage. He (ﷺ) said: "You have come near your enemy, and you will be stronger if you break your fast." When morning came, some of us fasted, and others broke their fast.' He said: 'We proceeded further and dismounted at a stage. He (ﷺ) said: "You are going to attack your enemy tomorrow morning, and by breaking the fast, you will be stronger, so break your fast." So this was a resolute order of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ.' Abū Sa'eed said: 'I found myself fasting along the Prophet ﷺ before and after that.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ)
