حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ: كَيْفَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَصُومُ؟ قَالَتْ: " كَانَ يَصُومُ حَتَّى نَقُولَ: لَا يُفْطِرُ، وَيُفْطِرُ حَتَّى نَقُولَ: لَا يَصُومُ، لَمْ أَرَهُ فِي شَهْرٍ أَكْثَرَ صِيَامًا مِنْهُ فِي شَعْبَانَ، كَانَ يَصُومُ شَعْبَانَ كُلَّهُ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا، بَلْ كَانَ يَصُومُ شَعْبَانَ كُلَّهُ " (١)،
Translation
English translation
Abu Salamah (may Allah have mercy on him) says that I asked Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) how the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) used to fast. She replied that sometimes the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) would fast so much that we would say, "Now the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) will continue to fast," and sometimes he would leave off fasting so much that we would say, "Now the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) will continue to leave off fasting." And I have not seen the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) fast in any month as much as I saw him fast in Sha'ban; the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) would fast almost the entire month, leaving only a few days.
