Bayhaqi 8321 — An elderly man unable to fast but able to pay expiation

أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو طَاهِرٍ الْفَقِيهُ، أنبأ عَبْدُوسُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ مَنْصُورٍ، ثنا أَبُو حَاتِمٍ الرَّازِيُّ، ثنا الْأَنْصَارِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي حُمَيْدٌ قَالَ: " لَمْ يُطِقْ أَنَسٌ صَوْمَ رَمَضَانَ عَامَ تُوُفِّيَ، وَعَرَفَ أَنَّهُ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَقْضِيَهُ فَسَأَلْتُ ابْنَهُ عُمَرَ بْنَ أَنَسٍ مَا فَعَلَ أَبُو حَمْزَةَ؟ فَقَالَ: جَفَنَّا لَهُ جِفَانًا مِنْ خُبْزٍ وَلَحْمٍ فَأَطْعَمْنَا الْعِدَّةَ أَوْ أَكْثَرَ يَعْنِي مِنْ ثَلَاثِينَ رَجُلًا لِكُلِّ يَوْمٍ رَجُلًا ".
Humayd narrates that in the year Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) died, he was unable to fast, and he knew that he would not be able to make it up either. So I asked his son Umar: What did Abu Hamzah (may Allah be pleased with him) do? He said: A tub of bread and meat was prepared, and we fed that number of poor people or more, meaning thirty men, one man for each day.
