Hadith 1971
وَحَدَّثَنَا بُنْدَارٌ ، نا مُحَمَّدٌ ، نا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمُتَوَكِّلِ النَّاجِي ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ ، قَالَ : " إِنَّمَا كَرِهْتُ الْحِجَامَةَ لِلصَّائِمِ مَخَافَةَ الضَّعْفِ " . قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : فَخَبَرُ قَتَادَةَ ، وَخَبَرُ أَبِي يَحْيَى ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ ، وَالضَّحَّاكِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ دَالانِ عَلَى أَنَّ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ لَمْ يَحْكِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الرُّخْصَةَ فِي الْحِجَامَةِ لِلصَّائِمِ ، إِذْ غَيْرُ جَائِزٍ أَنْ يَرْوِيَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَخَّصَ فِي الْحِجَامَةِ لِلصَّائِمِ ، وَيَقُولَ : كَانُوا يَكْرَهُونَ ذَلِكَ مَخَافَةَ الضَّعْفِ . إِذْ مَا قَدْ أَبَاحَهُ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِبَاحَةً مُطْلَقًا لا اسْتِثْنَاءً ، وَلا شَرِيطَةً ، فَمُبَاحٌ لِجَمِيعِ الْخَلْقِ ، غَيْرُ جَائِزٍ أَنْ يُقَالَ : أَبَاحَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْحِجَامَةَ لِلصَّائِمِ ، وَهُوَ مَكْرُوهٌ مَخَافَةَ الضَّعْفِ ، وَلَمْ يَسْتَثْنِ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي إِبَاحَتِهَا مَنْ يَأْمَنُ الضَّعْفَ دُونَ مَنْ يَخَافُهُ . فَإِنْ صَحَّ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَخَّصَ فِي الْحِجَامَةِ لِلصَّائِمِ ، كَانَ مُؤَدَّى هَذَا الْقَوْلِ أَنَّ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ قَالَ : كُرِهَ لِلصَّائِمِ مَا رَخَّصَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَهُ فِيهَا . وَغَيْرُ جَائِزٍ أَنْ يُتَأَوَّلَ هَذَا عَلَى أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَرْوُوا عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رُخْصَةً فِي الشَّيْءِ وَيَكْرَهُونَهُ
Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that cupping was disliked only due to the fear of weakness. Imam Abu Bakr (may Allah have mercy on him) says, therefore, the hadith of Qatadah and the hadith of Yahya from Humaid and Dahhak bin Uthman indicate that Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) did not narrate from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) the concession of cupping for the fasting person. Because it is not possible that Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) would narrate the concession of cupping for the fasting person from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and then himself say that the Companions disliked cupping due to the fear of weakness. Because when the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) declared cupping permissible without any exception or condition, then it is permissible and allowed for all creation. Then it is neither permissible nor correct to say that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) gave concession to the fasting person for cupping while it is disliked due to the fear of weakness, whereas the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) did not exclude from his concession and permission the one who fears weakness. Therefore, if it is proven correctly from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) gave concession to the fasting person for cupping, then the result and implication of this statement would be that Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) considers cupping disliked for the fasting person while the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) gave concession to the fasting person for it. And it is absolutely not permissible to say about the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) that they narrate the concession of something from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and themselves consider it disliked and undesirable. Zayd bin Aslam narrates from Ata bin Yasar from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that he stated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Three things break the fast of the fasting person: cupping, vomiting, and experiencing a wet dream."
