حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْجُرَيْرِيُّ ح . قَالَ : وحَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ وَكِيعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى، عَنْ الْجُرَيْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي نَضْرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ : " كُنَّا نُسَافِرُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَمِنَّا الصَّائِمُ وَمِنَّا الْمُفْطِرُ فَلَا يَجِدُ الْمُفْطِرُ عَلَى الصَّائِمِ ، وَلَا الصَّائِمُ عَلَى الْمُفْطِرِ ، فَكَانُوا يَرَوْنَ أَنَّهُ مَنْ وَجَدَ قُوَّةً فَصَامَ فَحَسَنٌ ، وَمَنْ وَجَدَ ضَعْفًا فَأَفْطَرَ فَحَسَنٌ " . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ .
´Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri narrated:` "We were on a journey with the Messenger of Allah. Some of us were fasting and some of us broke their fast. The one who broke their fast had no objection to the one who fasted, and the one who fasted had no objection to the one who broke his fast. They saw that whoever had the strength to fast then that was good, and whoever was weak, then breaking it was better."

If the mujahideen have reached such a place beyond which there is a fear of encountering the enemy, then in such a situation it is better to break the fast. And if it is certain that the enemy is present ahead for confrontation, then breaking the fast becomes necessary.

Benefits and Issues:
➊ Fasting or not fasting during travel depends on each individual's circumstances and personal preference.
➋ The noble Companions (radi Allahu anhum) had a deep understanding of the true nature of the statements of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam): which statement was merely an encouragement and which was a firm command (azimah). In matters of firm command (azimah), opposing the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) is never permissible in any way. This is why it is said that deduction and ijtihad (independent juristic reasoning) is the work of well-grounded scholars. For legal verdicts (fatawa), one should refer only to those who possess a complete mastery of the understanding of the Qur'an and Sunnah.
