English translation

723. Abū Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Whoever breaks the fast during Ramaḍān without an allowance nor an illness, then if he fasted for all time, his fasting would not make up for it." (Ḍā'if) Abū 'Eisā said: The Ḥadīth of Abū Hurairah is a narration that we do not know of except from this route. I heard Muḥammad saying: "The name of Al-Muṭawwis (one of the narrators) is Yazīd bin Al-Muṭawwis, and I do not know of any other than this Ḥadīth from him."

Arabic text

٧٢٣ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ‌وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا ‌سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ ‌حَبِيبِ بْنِ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو الْمُطَوِّسِ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ أَفْطَرَ يَوْمًا مِنْ رَمَضَانَ مِنْ غَيْرِ رُخْصَةٍ وَلَا مَرَضٍ» لَمْ يَقْضِ عَنْهُ صَوْمُ الدَّهْرِ كُلِّهِ وَإِنْ صَامَهُ. حَدِيثُ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ. وَسَمِعْتُ مُحَمَّدًا يَقُولُ: أَبُو الْمُطَوِّسِ اسْمُهُ يَزِيدُ بْنُ الْمُطَوِّسِ، وَلَا أَعْرِفُ لَهُ غَيْرَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ.

Commentary

This Ḥadīth proves that if a person abandons a fast of Ramaḍān or breaks it without any religiously valid excuse, he can then keep fasting his whole life but he cannot achieve the reward and virtuousness of the missed fast of Ramaḍān; his sin and offence will not be forgiven by just making it up without sincere repentance.
