The Saying Of Allâh Most High: "...And as for those who can fast with difficulty, they have (a choice either to fast or) to feed a Miskîn (poor person) (for every day)"[1] Is Abrogated By His Saying: "...So whoever of you sights (the crescent on the first night of) the month (of Ramadan i.e. is present at his home), he must observe Ṣawm (fasts) that month"...[2]

It was narrated that Salamah bin Al-Akwa' [may Allāh be pleased with them] said: "During Ramaḍān at the time of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, whoever among us wanted to fast did so, and whoever among us wanted to break the fast and pay the Fidyah did so, until this verse was revealed: '...So whoever of you sights (the crescent on the first night of) the month (of Ramaḍān i.e. is present at his home), he must observe Ṣawm (fasts) that month'..."[2]

150 - (1145) حَدَّثَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ سَوَّادٍ الْعَامِرِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ بُكَيْرِ بْنِ الْأَشَجِّ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ، مَوْلَى سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «كُنَّا فِي رَمَضَانَ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، مَنْ شَاءَ صَامَ وَمَنْ شَاءَ أَفْطَرَ فَافْتَدَى بِطَعَامِ مِسْكِينٍ»، حَتَّى أُنْزِلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ: {فَمَنْ شَهِدَ مِنْكُمُ الشَّهْرَ فَلْيَصُمْهُ} [البقرة: 185]
