أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، وَأَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يُوسُفَ السُّوسِيُّ وَأَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيُّ، قَالُوا: ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ أنبأ الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ مَزْيَدَ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الْأَوْزَاعِيَّ، حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ قَالَ: قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " أَلَمْ أُخْبَرْ أَنَّكَّ تَصُومُ النَّهَارَ وَتَقُومُ اللَّيْلَ؟ " قَالَ: بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَالَ: " فَلَا تَفْعَلْ نَمْ وَقُمْ وَصُمْ وَأَفْطِرْ فَإِنَّ لِجَسَدِكَ عَلَيْكَ حَقًّا وَإِنَّ لِعَيْنَيْكَ عَلَيْكَ حَقًّا وَإِنَّ لِزَوْجِكَ عَلَيْكَ حَقًّا وَإِنَّ لِزَوْرِكَ عَلَيْكَ حَقًّا وَإِنَّ بِحَسْبِكَ أَنْ تَصُومَ مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ فَإِنَّ كُلَّ حَسَنَةٍ بِعَشْرِ أَمْثَالِهَا وَإِذَا ذَاكَ صِيَامُ الدَّهْرِ كُلِّهِ " قَالَ: فَشَدَّدْتُ فَشُدِّدَ عَلَيَّ، قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنِّي أَجِدُ قُوَّةً قَالَ: " فَصُمْ مِنْ كُلِّ جُمُعَةٍ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ " قَالَ: فَشَدَّدْتُ فَشُدِّدَ عَلَيَّ قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي أَجِدُ قُوَّةً، قَالَ: " فَصُمْ صِيَامَ نَبِيِّ اللهِ دَاوُدَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ وَلَا تَزِدْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ " قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ وَمَا كَانَ صِيَامُ نَبِيِّ اللهِ دَاوُدَ؟ قَالَ: " نِصْفُ الدَّهْرِ ".
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: "Have I not been informed that you are one who fasts by day and one who stands in prayer by night?" He said: I said: Yes, O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! It is so. So he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not do so; rather, sleep and stand in prayer, fast and break your fast. Your body has a right over you, your eyes have a right over you, your wife has a right over you, and your guest has a right over you. It is sufficient for you to fast three days every month, for every good deed is (rewarded) tenfold; when you do this, you will be one who fasts perpetually." He said: I was strict, so strictness was imposed on me as well. I said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! I have the strength. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then fast three days every week." He said: I was strict, so strictness was imposed on me. I said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! I am able. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then keep the fasts of the Prophet of Allah, Dawud (peace be upon him), and do not exceed that." He said: I said: What were the fasts of the Prophet of Allah, Dawud (peace be upon him)? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Half of the year."
