Musnad of Anas bin Malik
Musnad Abi Ya'la 2972 — the Prophet ﷺ said: Do not observe continuous
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، قَالَ : لَا تُوَاصِلُوا ، قَالُوا : فَإِنَّكَ تُوَاصِلُ ، قَالَ : إِنِّي لَسْتُ كَأَحَدِكُمْ ، إِنِّي أُطْعَمُ وَأُسْقَى .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not observe continuous fasting (wisal, fasting without breaking the fast in between)." The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) said: "(O Messenger of Allah,) but you yourself observe continuous fasting." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed I am not like any of you; I am given food and drink (by my Lord)."
