1645. It was narrated that Silah bin Zufar said: "We were with 'Ammâr on the day concerning which there was some doubt. A (roasted) sheep was brought and some of the people moved away. 'Ammâr said: 'Whoever is fasting on this day has disobeyed Abu Qâsim ﷺ.'" (Da'if)

Arabic text

1645 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ الْأَحْمَرُ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ قَيْسٍ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ صِلَةَ بْنِ زُفَرَ، قَالَ: كُنَّا عِنْدَ عَمَّارٍ فِي الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي يُشَكُّ فِيهِ، فَأُتِيَ بِشَاةٍ، فَتَنَحَّى بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ، فَقَالَ عَمَّارٌ: «مَنْ صَامَ هَذَا الْيَوْمَ فَقَدْ عَصَى أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ»

Commentary

a. The day of doubt means the day after the 29th of Sha'bân, when the sighting of new crescent is not confirmed. This day in fact is the thirtieth day of Sha'bân. b. Allâh has prescribed a set amount and time scales for obligatory worship. It is incorrect to ignore this line between voluntary and obligatory worship.
