أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا وَکِيعٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمُبَارَکِ عَنْ يَحْيَی بْنِ أَبِي کَثِيرٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ ثَوْبَانَ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لَيْسَ مِنْ الْبِرِّ الصِّيَامُ فِي السَّفَرِ عَلَيْکُمْ بِرُخْصَةِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَاقْبَلُوهَا
سنن نسائی · Hadith 2266
Jabir bin ‘Abdullah narrated that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم passed by a man in the shade of a tree on whom water was being sprinkled. He said: “What is the matter with your companion?” They said: “Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم, he is fasting.” He said: “It is not righteousness to fast when traveling. Take to the concession which Allah has granted you, accept it.” (Sahih)
