اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو نَصْرِ بْنُ قَتَادَةَ أنبأ أَبُو مَنْصُورٍ الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ، ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ نَجْدَةَ، ثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، ثنا يَعْقُوبُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ حَرْمَلَةَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ، فِي قَوْلِهِ {وَعَلَى الَّذِينَ يُطِيقُونَهُ فِدْيَةٌ طَعَامُ مِسْكِينٍ} [البقرة: ١٨٤] قَالَ: " هُوَ الْكَبِيرُ الَّذِي كَانَ يَصُومُ فَيَعْجِزُ وَالْمَرْأَةُ الْحُبْلَى يَشُقُّ عَلَيْهَا فَعَلَيْهِمَا طَعَامُ مِسْكِينٍ لِكُلِّ يَوْمٍ حَتَّى يَنْقَضِيَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ ".
Sa'id bin al-Musayyib (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "And upon those who are able to fast (only with hardship) is a ransom: the feeding of a poor person" [Surah al-Baqarah: 184]. This refers to the old man who used to fast and then became unable, and the pregnant woman for whom it is a hardship; upon them both is the feeding of one poor person for each day until the month of Ramadan is completed.
