English translation

رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ 1963. Narrated Abū Sa'īd ﷺ that he had heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "Do not Saum (fast) continuously (i.e., do not practise Al-Wišāl), and if you intend to lengthen your Saum (fasting period), then carry it on only till the Saḥar (before the following dawn)." The people said to him, "But you practise (Al-Wišāl), O Allāh's Messenger!" He replied, "I am not similar to you, for during night I have One Who makes me eat and drink."

1963 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ الهَادِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ خَبَّابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَقُولُ: «لاَ تُوَاصِلُوا، فَأَيُّكُمْ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يُوَاصِلَ، فَلْيُوَاصِلْ حَتَّى السَّحَرِ»، قَالُوا: فَإِنَّكَ تُوَاصِلُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ: «إِنِّي لَسْتُ كَهَيْئَتِكُمْ إِنِّي أَبِيتُ لِي مُطْعِمٌ يُطْعِمُنِي، وَسَاقٍ يَسْقِينِ»
