She said: "One day he came to me and I said: 'O Messenger of Allāh; I have received a gift for us.' He said: 'What is it?'" She said: "I said: Hais[1] He said: 'I began the day fasting'" She said: "Then he ate." (Sahih) Abū Eisā said: This Hadīth is Hasan.
٧٣٤ - حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ يَحْيَى ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ بِنْتِ طَلْحَةَ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، قَالَتْ: «كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَأْتِينِي فَيَقُولُ: أَعِنْدَكِ غَدَاءٌ؟ فَأَقُولُ: لَا، فَيَقُولُ: إِنِّي صَائِمٌ قَالَتْ: فَأَتَانِي يَوْمًا فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّهُ قَدْ أُهْدِيَتْ لَنَا هَدِيَّةٌ، قَالَ: وَمَا هِيَ؟ قَالَتْ: قُلْتُ: حَيْسٌ، قَالَ: أَمَا إِنِّي قَدْ أَصْبَحْتُ صَائِمًا،» قَالَتْ: ثُمَّ أَكَلَ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ.
