حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ ، عَنِ الْجُرَيْرِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي السَّلِيلِ ، عَنْ أَبِي مُجِيبَةَ الْبَاهِلِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَوْ عَنْ عَمِّهِ ، قَالَ : أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ ، أَنَا الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي أَتَيْتُكَ عَامَ الْأَوَّلِ ، قَالَ : " فَمَا لِي أَرَى جِسْمَكَ نَاحِلًا " ، قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، مَا أَكَلْتُ طَعَامًا بِالنَّهَارِ مَا أَكَلْتُهُ إِلَّا بِاللَّيْلِ ، قَالَ : " مَنْ أَمَرَكَ أَنْ تُعَذِّبَ نَفْسَكَ ؟ " ، قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنِّي أَقْوَى ، قَالَ : " صُمْ شَهْرَ الصَّبْرِ ، وَيَوْمًا بَعْدَهُ " ، قُلْتُ : إِنِّي أَقْوَى ، قَالَ : " صُمْ شَهْرَ الصَّبْرِ ، وَيَوْمَيْنِ بَعْدَهُ " ، قُلْتُ : إِنِّي أَقْوَى ، قَالَ : " صُمْ شَهْرَ الصَّبْرِ ، وَثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ بَعْدَهُ ، وَصُمْ أَشْهُرَ الْحُرُمِ " .
´It was narrated from Abu Mujibah Al-Bahili that his father or, his paternal uncle, said:` “I came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: ‘O Prophet of Allah, I am the man who came to you last year.’ He said: ‘Why do I see your body so thin (and weak)?’ He said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! I do not eat during the day; I only eat at night.’ He said: ‘Who commanded you to punish yourself?’ I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! I am strong enough.’ He said: ‘Fast the month of patience* and one day after it.’ I said: ‘I am strong enough (to do more).’ He said: ‘Fast the month of patience and two days after it.’ I said: ‘I am strong enough (to do more).’ He said: ‘Fast the month of patience and three days after it, and fast the sacred months.’”
