5297. Narrated ‘Abdullāh bin Abī Aufā: We were with Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ on a journey, and when the sun set, he said to a man, "Get down and prepare a drink of Sawīq for me." The man said, "O Allāh's Messenger! Will you wait till it is evening?" Allāh's Messenger ﷺ again said, "Get down and prepare a drink of Sawīq." The man said, "O Allāh's Messenger! Will you wait till it is evening, for it is still daytime." The Prophet ﷺ again said, "Get down and prepare a drink of Sawīq." So the third time the man got down and prepared a drink of Sawīq for him. Allāh's Messenger ﷺ drank thereof and pointed with his hand towards the East, saying, "When you see the night falling from this side, then a fasting person should break his fast." (See H. 1941)

5297 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الحَمِيدِ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي أَوْفَى، قَالَ: كُنَّا فِي سَفَرٍ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَلَمَّا غَرَبَتِ الشَّمْسُ، قَالَ لِرَجُلٍ: «انْزِلْ فَاجْدَحْ لِي» قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَوْ أَمْسَيْتَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «انْزِلْ فَاجْدَحْ» قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَوْ أَمْسَيْتَ، إِنَّ عَلَيْكَ نَهَارًا، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «انْزِلْ فَاجْدَحْ» فَنَزَلَ فَجَدَحَ لَهُ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ، فَشَرِبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ثُمَّ أَوْمَأَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى المَشْرِقِ، فَقَالَ: «إِذَا رَأَيْتُمُ اللَّيْلَ قَدْ أَقْبَلَ مِنْ هَا هُنَا، فَقَدْ أَفْطَرَ الصَّائِمُ»
