Shama'il al-Muhammadiya 281

'Abdullah bin Shaqeeq (may Allah be pleased with him) reports:
"I inquired from 'Aisha Radhiyallahu 'Anha regarding the (nafil) saum of Messenger of Allah ﷺ. She replied: 'At times Messenger of Allah ﷺ fasted continuously. We used to say, he will keep on fasting (this month). At times he did not fast, till we began thinking he will not fast (that month). Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not fast for a month after he came to Madinah, besides the fasts of Ramadhaan'".

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ شَقِيقٍ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ، عَنْ صِيَامِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، قَالَتْ: كَانَ يَصُومُ حَتَّى نَقُولَ قَدْ صَامَ، وَيُفْطِرُ حَتَّى نَقُولَ قَدْ أَفْطَرَ قَالَتْ: وَمَا صَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، شَهْرًا كَامِلا مُنْذُ قَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ إِلا رَمَضَانَ.
