1961. Narrated Anas رضي الله عنه: The Prophet ﷺ said, “Do not practise Al-Wiṣāl [fasting continuously without breaking one's Ṣaum (fast) in the evening or eating before the following dawn].” The people said to the Prophet ﷺ, “But you practise Al-Wiṣāl?” The Prophet ﷺ replied, “I am not like any of you, for I am given food and drink (by Allāh) during the night.”

Arabic text

1961 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي قَتَادَةُ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «لاَ تُوَاصِلُوا» قَالُوا: إِنَّكَ تُوَاصِلُ، قَالَ: «لَسْتُ كَأَحَدٍ مِنْكُمْ إِنِّي أُطْعَمُ، وَأُسْقَى، أَوْ إِنِّي أَبِيتُ أُطْعَمُ وَأُسْقَى»
