2258. It was narrated that Sa'eed bin Al-Mūsāyyab said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'It is not righteousness to fast when traveling.'" (Sahīh) Abū 'Abdur-Raḥmān (An-Nasā'ī) said: This is a mistake, and what is correct is the one that is before it. We do not know of anyone who followed up Ibn Kathīr.
2256 - أَخْبَرَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَيْسَ مِنَ الْبِرِّ الصِّيَامُ فِي السَّفَرِ» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ: «هَذَا خَطَأٌ وَالصَّوَابُ الَّذِي قَبْلَهُ، لَا نَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا تَابَعَ ابْنَ كَثِيرٍ عَلَيْهِ»

1. In this narration, there is an error in the chain of transmission. The mention of Sa'eed bin Mūsāyyab without a Companion is the error on the part of the transmitter. 2. If the traveler is capable of enduring the fast, is able to carry out his own work independently, does not become a source of anxiety and burden for others, then, fasting while traveling would not only be appropriate but superior. In the upcoming chapter and narrations, there is an allusion to that.
