حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالَ نَصْرٌ: أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى، وَقَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى: أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ، وَأَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ؓ قَالَ:
قُلْتُ لَأَصُومَنَّ النَّهَارَ، وَلَأَقُومَنَّ اللَّيْلَ، فَلَقِيتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: " أَنْتَ الَّذِي قُلْتَ لَأَصُومَنَّ النَّهَارَ، وَلَأَقُومَنَّ اللَّيْلَ ؟ " قَالَ: قُلْتُ: قَدْ قُلْتُ ذَاكَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: إِنَّكَ لَا تُطِيقُ ذَاكَ فَقُمْ وَنَمْ، وَصُمْ وَأَفْطِرْ، صُمْ مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ، فَذَلِكَ مِثْلُ صِيَامِ الدَّهْرِ "، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: إِنِّي أُطِيقُ أَفْضَلَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ قَالَ: " صُمْ يَوْمًا وَأَفْطِرْ يَوْمَيْنِ "، قُلْتُ: إِنِّي أُطِيقُ أَفْضَلَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ، قَالَ: " صُمْ يَوْمًا وَأَفْطِرْ يَوْمًا، وَذَلِكَ أَعْدَلُ الصِّيَامِ، وَهُوَ صَوْمُ دَاوُدَ ﷺ "، قُلْتُ: إِنِّي أُطِيقُ أَفْضَلَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ قَالَ: " لَا أَفْضَلَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ

✧ I said: "I will certainly fast the day and stand in prayer at night." Then I met the Prophet ﷺ, and he said: "Are you the one who said: 'I will certainly fast the day and stand in prayer at night'?" He said: I said: "I did say that." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "You will not be able to do that. So pray and sleep, fast and break your fast. Fast three days every month, for that is like fasting a lifetime." He said: I said: "I can do better than that." He said: "Fast one day and break your fast for two days." I said: "I can do better than that." He said: "Fast one day and break your fast one day. That is the most just fasting, and it is the fasting of Dawud ﷺ." I said: "I can do better than that." He said: "There is nothing better than that."
