English translation

1965. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ forbade Al-Wišāl in observing As-Saum (the fasts). So, one of the Muslims said to him, "But you practise Al-Wišāl, O Allāh's Messenger!" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Who amongst you is similar to me? I am given food and drink during night by my Lord." So, when the people refused to stop Al-Wišāl (fasting continuously), the Prophet ﷺ observed Saum (the fast) day and night continuously along with them for a day and then another day and then they saw the crescent-moon (of the month of Shawwāl). The Prophet ﷺ said to them (angrily), "If it (the crescent) had not appeared, I would have made you observe Saum for a longer period." That was as a punishment for them when they refused to stop (practising Al-Wišāl). [See Faṭh Al-Bārī]

Arabic text

1965 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو اليَمَانِ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: «نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الوِصَالِ فِي الصَّوْمِ» فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنَ المُسْلِمِينَ: إِنَّكَ تُوَاصِلُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: «وَأَيُّكُمْ مِثْلِي، إِنِّي أَبِيتُ يُطْعِمُنِي رَبِّي وَيَسْقِينِ»، فَلَمَّا أَبَوْا أَنْ يَنْتَهُوا عَنِ الوِصَالِ، وَاصَلَ بِهِمْ يَوْمًا، ثُمَّ يَوْمًا، ثُمَّ رَأَوُا الْهِلَالَ، فَقَالَ: «لَوْ تَأَخَّرَ لَزِدْتُكُمْ» كَالتَّنْكِيلِ لَهُمْ حِينَ أَبَوْا أَنْ يَنْتَهُوا
