حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْفَرَجُ بْنُ فَضَالَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هَرِمٍ عَنْ صَدَقَةَ الدِّمَشْقِيِّ قَالَ
جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ يَسْأَلُهُ عَنِ الصِّيَامِ فَقَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: إِنَّ مِنْ أَفْضَلِ الصِّيَامِ صِيَامَ أَخِي دَاوُدَ كَانَ يَصُومُ يَوْمًا، وَيُفْطِرُ يَوْمًا
