Hadith 1146
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يُونُسَ ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا ، تَقُولُ : " كَانَ يَكُونُ عَلَيَّ الصَّوْمُ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ ، فَمَا أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أَقْضِيَهُ إِلَّا فِي شَعْبَانَ الشُّغْلُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، أَوْ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " ،
Abu Salama reported: I heard 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) as saying: I had to complete some of the fasts of Ramadan, but I could not do it but during the month of Sha'ban due to my duties to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) or with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) .

وحَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاق بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ عُمَرَ الزَّهْرَانِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنِي سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ بِلَالٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ ، غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ : " وَذَلِكَ لِمَكَانِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " ،
This hadith is narrated on the authority of Yahya bin Sa'id with the same chain of transmitters but with this variation that he said that ('A'isha did not observe fast but in Sha'ban) out of regard for the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) .

وحَدَّثَنِيهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ ، وَقَالَ : فَظَنَنْتُ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ لِمَكَانِهَا مِنَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَحْيَى يَقُولُهُ ،

وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ . ح وحَدَّثَنَا عَمْرٌو النَّاقِدُ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ كِلَاهُمَا ، عَنْ يَحْيَى : بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ ، وَلَمْ يَذْكُرَا فِي الْحَدِيثِ " الشُّغْلُ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " .
(In another version, the words are): "Yahya said: I think it was due to the regard for the Apostle of Allah (ﷺ) ."

وحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ الْمَكِّيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الدَّرَاوَرْدِيُّ ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْهَادِ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا ، أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ : إِنْ كَانَتْ إِحْدَانَا لَتُفْطِرُ فِي زَمَانِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَمَا تَقْدِرُ عَلَى أَنْ تَقْضِيَهُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ شَعْبَانُ " .
'A'isha reported: If one amongst us had to break fasts of Ramadan (due to natural reasons, i. e. menses) during the life of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) she could not find it possible to complete them so long she had been in the presence of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) till Sha'ban commenced.

Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Maulana Abdul Aziz Alvi
Hadith Commentary: Benefits and Issues: From the hadith of Aisha (radi Allahu anha), it is established that if a person misses any fasts of Ramadan due to some reason—illness, travel, compulsion, or an excuse such as menstruation (hayd) and postnatal bleeding (nifas), pregnancy, etc.—then it is not necessary to make up those fasts immediately after Ramadan. Before the arrival of the next Ramadan, whenever one wishes, those fasts can be made up. The noble wives (azwaj mutahharat, radi Allahu anhunna ajma'in), since they were always prepared to serve the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), would make up their missed fasts in the month of Sha'ban, because in this month the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) would fast abundantly. This is also the position of the four Imams (a’immah arba‘ah).
