Musnad Abi Ya'la 4580 — a woman asked Sayyidah Aishah
حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ الرِّشْكِ، عَنْ مُعَاذَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً سَأَلَتْ عَائِشَةَ عَنْ وِصَالِ صِيَامِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، فَقَالَتْ: أَتَعْمَلِينَ كَعَمَلِهِ؛ فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ، وَكَانَ عَمَلُهُ نَافِلَةً؟ ثُمَّ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: أَمَّا أَنَا فَوَاللَّهِ مَا صُمْتُ لَيْلًا قَطُّ إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَالَ: {ثُمَّ أَتِمُّوا الصِّيَامَ إِلَى اللَّيْلِ} [البقرة: 187] "
It is narrated from Mu'adhah (may Allah have mercy on her) that a woman asked Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) about the continuous fasting (wisal, fasting day after day without breaking the fast) of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). She said: "Can you do deeds like those the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did? Whereas all his (peace and blessings be upon him) past and future sins had been forgiven, and his (peace and blessings be upon him) deeds were merely voluntary (extra)?" Then Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "As for me, by Allah, I have never fasted into the night (doing wisal), because Allah Almighty says: 'Then complete the fast until the night.'"
