وَأَخْبَرَنَاهُ يُوسُفُ بْنُ مُوسَى قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا حُصَيْنُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ؓ قَالَ:
كُنْتُ رَجُلًا مُجْتَهِدًا فَتَزَوَّجْتُ فَجَاءَ أَبِي إِلَى الْمَرْأَةِ فَقَالَ لَهَا: كَيْفَ تَجِدِي بَعْلَكِ ؟ فَقَالَتْ: نِعْمَ الرَّجُلُ مِنْ رَجُلٍ، مَا يَنَامُ وَمَا يُفْطِرُ، فَوَقَعَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ أَبِي، فَقَالَ: زَوَّجْتُكَ امْرَأَةً مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَفَعَلْتَ بِهَا مَا فَعَلْتَ ؟ فَلَمْ أُبَالِ مَا قَالَ، لِمَا أَجِدُ مِنَ الْقُوَّةِ إِلَى أَنْ بَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: لَكِنِّي أَنَامُ وَأُصَلِّي وَأَصُومُ وَأُفْطِرُ، فَصُمْ وَصَلِّ وَنَمْ وَقُمْ، صُمْ مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ " قُلْتُ: إِنِّي أَقْوَى مِنْ ذَلِكَ قَالَ: " فَصُمْ صَوْمَ دَاوُدَ ﷺ، صُمْ يَوْمًا وَأَفْطِرْ يَوْمًا، وَاقْرَأِ الْقُرْآنَ فِي كُلِّ شَهْرٍ " فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَنَا أَقْوَى مِنْ ذَلِكَ، قَالَ: " اقْرَأْهُ فِي خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ "، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَنَا أَقْوَى مِنْ ذَلِكَ، فَمَا زَالَ حَتَّى بَلَغَ سَبْعًا، ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: إِنَّ لِكُلِّ عَمَلٍ شِرَّةً، وَلِكُلِّ شِرَّةٍ فَتْرَةً، فَمَنْ كَانَتْ فَتْرَتُهُ إِلَى سُنَّتِي فَقَدِ اهْتَدَى، وَمَنْ كَانَتْ فَتْرَتُهُ إِلَى غَيْرِ ذَلِكَ فَقَدْ هَلَكَ " فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو: لَمَّا كَبِرَ وَضَعُفَ: لَأَنْ أَكُونَ قَبِلْتُ رُخْصَةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَهْلِي وَمَالِي

✧ I was a man of great effort in worship, then I married. My father came to the woman and said to her: "How do you find your husband?" She said: "What a good man he is, from a good man. He does not sleep and he does not break his fast." Then there occurred between me and my father [a dispute]. He said: "I married you to a Muslim woman, and you did to her what you did?" I did not care what he said, because of the strength I found, until that reached the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said: "But I sleep and pray, and I fast and break my fast. So fast, pray, sleep, and stand in prayer. Fast three days every month." I said: "I am stronger than that." He said: "Then fast the fasting of Dawud ﷺ: fast one day and break your fast one day, and read the Quran once every month." I said: "O Messenger of Allah, I am stronger than that." He said: "Read it in fifteen days." I said: "O Messenger of Allah, I am stronger than that." He kept reducing until he reached seven. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Every deed has a period of enthusiasm, and every enthusiasm has a period of slackness. Whoever's slackness is toward my Sunnah has been guided, and whoever's slackness is toward other than that has perished." Abdullah b. Amr said, when he grew old and weak: "If I had accepted the concession of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, it would be more beloved to me than my family and my wealth."
