ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : " خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ إِلَى مَكَّةَ ، فَصَامَ حَتَّى بَلَغَ عُسْفَانَ ، ثُمَّ دَعَا بِمَاءٍ ، فَرَفَعَهُ إِلَى يَدِهِ لِيُرِيَهُ النَّاسَ ، فَأَفْطَرَ حَتَّى قَدِمَ مَكَّةَ ، وَذَلِكَ فِي رَمَضَانَ ، وَكَانَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ، يَقُولُ : قَدْ صَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَفْطَرَ ، فَمَنْ شَاءَ صَامَ ، وَمَنْ شَاءَ أَفْطَرَ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) set out from Madinah Munawwarah with the intention of Makkah Mukarramah. He was fasting, but when he reached the place of Usfan, he had a vessel brought and placed it on his hand so that everyone could see, and then he broke his fast. Therefore, Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) used to say that a traveler is permitted, whether he fasts or not (he can make it up later).
