Hadith 1965
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ بِبَغْدَادَ ، قَالَ : وَحَدَّثَنِي عَمَّارُ بْنُ مَطَرٍ أَبُو عُثْمَانَ الرَّهَاوِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ سَلامٍ ، قَدْ خَرَّجْتُ هَذَا الْبَابَ بِتَمَامِهِ فِي كِتَابِ الْكَبِيرِ . قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : فَقَدْ ثَبُتَ الْخَبَرُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ : " أَفْطَرَ الْحَاجِمُ وَالْمَحْجُومُ " . فَقَالَ بَعْضُ مَنْ خَالَفَنَا فِي هَذِهِ الْمَسْأَلَةِ : إِنَّ الْحِجَامَةَ لا تُفَطِّرُ الصَّائِمَ ، وَاحْتَجَّ بِأَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " احْتَجَمَ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ مُحْرِمٌ " ، وَهَذَا الْخَبَرُ غَيْرُ دَالٍّ عَلَى أَنَّ الْحِجَامَةَ لا تُفَطِّرُ الصَّائِمَ ؛ لأَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّمَا " احْتَجَمَ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ فِي سَفَرٍ " لا فِي حَضَرٍ ؛ لأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ قَطُّ مُحْرِمًا مُقِيمًا بِبَلَدِهِ ، إِنَّمَا كَانَ مُحْرِمًا وَهُوَ مُسَافِرٌ ، وَالْمُسَافِرُ وَإِنْ كَانَ نَاوِيًا لِلصَّوْمِ قَدْ مَضَى عَلَيْهِ بَعْضُ النَّهَارِ ، وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ عَنِ الأَكْلِ وَالشُّرْبِ ، وَأَنَّ الأَكْلَ وَالشُّرْبَ يُفَطِّرَانِهِ ، لا كَمَا تَوَهَّمَ بَعْضُ الْعُلَمَاءِ أَنَّ الْمُسَافِرَ إِذَا دَخَلَ الصَّوْمُ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ أَنْ يُفْطِرَ إِلَى أَنْ يُتِمَّ صَوْمَ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي دَخَلَ فِيهِ . فَإِذَا كَانَ لَهَ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ وَيَشْرَبَ وَقَدْ نَوَى الصَّوْمَ ، وَقَدْ مَضَى بَعْضُ النَّهَارِ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ يُفْطِرُ بِالأَكْلِ وَالشُّرْبِ ، جَازَ لَهُ أَنْ يَحْتَجِمَ وَهُوَ مُسَافِرٌ فِي بَعْضِ نَهَارِ الصَّوْمِ ، وَإِنْ كَانَتِ الْحِجَامَةُ مُفَطِّرَةً . وَالدَّلِيلُ عَلَى أَنَّ لِلصَّائِمِ أَنْ يُفْطِرَ بِالأَكْلِ وَالشُّرْبِ فِي السَّفَرِ فِي نَهَارٍ قَدْ مَضَى بَعْضُهُ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ
Imam Sahib has narrated the chain of transmission for the hadith of Muawiyah bin Salam and says that I have explained this complete chapter in Kitab al-Kabir. Imam Abu Bakr, may Allah have mercy on him, states that indeed this hadith is authentically proven from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that he said: "The one who performs cupping and the one who gets cupped, their fast is broken." On this issue, one of our opponents has said that getting cupped does not break the fast of the fasting person, and he has given the evidence that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) got cupped while fasting, and at that time he was also in the state of Ihram. However, this narration does not indicate that getting cupped does not break the fast of the fasting person, because the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) got cupped at a time when he was fasting during travel. He was not residing at that time. Because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was never in the state of Ihram while residing in his city; rather, he was in the state of Ihram during travel. Whereas, if a traveler, even though he has made the intention of fasting and a part of the day has passed and he has refrained from eating and drinking, his fast will be broken by eating and drinking. And the misconception that some scholars have is not correct, that when a traveler starts fasting, then it is not permissible for him to break that fast without completing it. Therefore, if it is permissible for a traveler to eat and drink after making the intention of fasting, even though a part of the day has passed and he is fasting, then his fast will be broken by eating and drinking. So, it is also permissible for him to get cupped while fasting during travel, even if getting cupped breaks the fast. And the evidence for this is that it is permissible for a traveler to break his fast by eating food or drinking a beverage during travel, even though he has spent a part of the day fasting. (The following hadith is:)
