English translation

1856. Anas bin Mālik narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Take the 'Ashā' meal, even if it is just with a handful of something to fill. For indeed avoiding the 'Ashā' is from senility." (Da'if) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Munkar, we do not know of it except from this route. 'Anbasah was graded weak in Hadīth. 'Abdul-Mālik bin 'Allāq is unknown.

Arabic text

١٨٥٦ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌يَحْيَى بْنُ مُوسَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْلَى الْكُوفِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَنْبَسَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْقُرَشِيُّ ، عَنْ ‌عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عَلَّاقٍ ، عَنْ ‌أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «تَعَشَّوْا وَلَوْ بِكَفٍّ مِنْ حَشَفٍ؛» فَإِنَّ تَرْكَ الْعَشَاءِ مَهْرَمَةٌ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ مُنْكَرٌ، لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ. وَعَنْبَسَةُ يُضَعَّفُ فِي الْحَدِيثِ، وَعَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ عَلَّاقٍ مَجْهُولٌ.

Commentary

If one feels a genuine need for eating but does not eat, he runs the risk of generating heat in his stomach. Hunger soon starts draining away the natural juices of the body as well as diminishing the appetite, which leads to the weakening of the body and, as a rule, a weak person ages faster. This is a medical truism mistaken for a Hadīth.
