English translation

رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا 1971. Narrated Ibn 'Abbās: The Prophet ﷺ never observed Saum (fast) a full month except the month of Ramaḍān, and he used to observe Saum (fast) till one could say, "By Allāh, he will never stop observing Saum (fast)," and he would abandon observing Saum (fast) till one would say, "By Allāh, he will never observe Saum (fast)." Allāh's Messenger ﷺ used to leave observing Saum (fast) in a certain month till we thought that he would not observe Saum (fast) in that month, and he used to fast in another month till we thought he would not stop observing Saum (fast) at all in that month. And if one wanted to see him offering Salāt (prayer) at night, one could see him (in that condition), and if one wanted to see him sleeping at night, one could see him (in that condition) too.

1971 - حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي بِشْرٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا، قَالَ: «مَا صَامَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ شَهْرًا كَامِلًا قَطُّ غَيْرَ رَمَضَانَ» "وَيَصُومُ حَتَّى يَقُولَ القَائِلُ: لاَ وَاللَّهِ لاَ يُفْطِرُ، وَيُفْطِرُ حَتَّى يَقُولَ القَائِلُ: لاَ وَاللَّهِ لاَ يَصُومُ "
