English translation

[2722] 176 - (...) It was narrated that Abû Salamah said: "I asked 'Aishah [may Allâh be pleased with her] about the fasting of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and she said: 'He used to fast until we would say: "He has fasted," and he used not to fast until we would say: "He is not fasting." And I never saw him fast more in any month than he fasted in Sha'bân. He used to fast all of Sha'bân, he used to fast all of Sha'bân but a little."

176 - (1156) وحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَعَمْرٌو النَّاقِدُ، جَمِيعًا عَنِ ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ، قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَبِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهَا، عَنْ صِيَامِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَتْ: " كَانَ يَصُومُ حَتَّى نَقُولَ: قَدْ صَامَ وَيُفْطِرُ حَتَّى نَقُولَ: قَدْ أَفْطَرَ، وَلَمْ أَرَهُ صَائِمًا مِنْ شَهْرٍ قَطُّ، أَكْثَرَ مِنْ صِيَامِهِ مِنْ شَعْبَانَ كَانَ يَصُومُ شَعْبَانَ كُلَّهُ، كَانَ يَصُومُ شَعْبَانَ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا "
