750. Ibn 'Abbās narrated: "The Prophet ﷺ broke (the fast) at 'Arafah, Umm Faḍl sent him some milk to drink." (Saḥīh)
There are narrations on this topic from Abū Hurairah, Ibn 'Umar, and Umm Al-Faḍl.
Abū 'Eisā said: The Hadīth of Ibn 'Abbās is a Hasan Saḥīh Hadīth. It has been reported that Ibn 'Umar said: "I performed Hajj with the Prophet ﷺ, and he did not fast it – that is, on the Day of 'Arafah – and with Abū Bakr, and he did not fast it, and with 'Umar, and he did not fast it, (and with 'Uthmān, and he did not fast it)."
This is acted upon according to most of the people of knowledge, they consider it recommended to break one's fast at 'Arafāt so that one will have the strength to supplicate. Some of the people of knowledge fasted at 'Arafāt on the Day of 'Arafah.
