Musnad of Anas bin Malik
Musnad Abi Ya'la 3282 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ observed
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَاصَلَ فِي رَمَضَانَ ، فَوَاصَلَ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ ، فَقَالَ : لَوْ مُدَّ لِيَ الشَّهْرُ لَوَاصَلْتُ وِصَالًا يَدَعُ الْمُتَعَمِّقُونَ تَعَمُّقَهُمْ ، إِنِّي أَظَلُّ يُطْعِمُنِي رَبِّي وَيَسْقِينِي .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) observed the continuous fast (wisal: fasting continuously without the pre-dawn meal and breaking the fast) in the blessed month of Ramadan, and some of his (peace and blessings be upon him) Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) also began to observe wisal. Thereupon he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If this month were extended for me, I would observe such a wisal that those who go to extremes would abandon their excessive severity and extremism. As for me, I remain in the state that my Lord feeds me and He gives me to drink."
