English translation

[2608] (...) It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbâs [may Allâh be pleased with them] said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ traveled during Ramaḍân, and he fasted until he reached 'Usfân, then he called for a vessel containing some drink, and he drank it during the day so that the people could see him. Then he did not fast, until he entered Makkah." Ibn 'Abbâs [may Allâh be pleased with them] said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ fasted and (also) he did not fast, so whoever wishes may fast, and whoever wishes may not fast."

Arabic text

(1113) وحَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أَخْبَرَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا، قَالَ: «سَافَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي رَمَضَانَ، فَصَامَ حَتَّى بَلَغَ عُسْفَانَ، ثُمَّ دَعَا بِإِنَاءٍ فِيهِ شَرَابٌ، فَشَرِبَهُ نَهَارًا لِيَرَاهُ النَّاسُ، ثُمَّ أَفْطَرَ حَتَّى دَخَلَ مَكَّةَ» قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا: فَصَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَفْطَرَ، فَمَنْ شَاءَ صَامَ، وَمَنْ شَاءَ أَفْطَرَ
