عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: أَتَيْتُهُ بِعَرَفَةَ فَوَجَدْتُهُ يَأْكُلُ رُمَّانًا، فَقَالَ: ادْنُ فَكُلْ، لَعَلَّكَ صَائِمٌ، إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ لَا يَصُومُهُ، وَقَالَ مَرَّةً: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمْ يَصُمْ هَذَا الْيَوْمَ
Saeed bin Jubair says: I went to Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) at the place of Arafah, while he was eating pomegranate. He said to me: Come closer and eat, but it seems that you are fasting. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did not fast on this day. And on one occasion he said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did not fast on this day.
