أَخْبَرَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ مُوسَى قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ أَرْطَاةَ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ؓ قَالَ: قَالَ لِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ:
" تَصُومُ النَّهَارَ وَتَقُومُ اللَّيْلَ ؟ " قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: " فَلَا تَفْعَلْ، فَإِنَّكَ إِذَا فَعَلْتَ ذَلِكَ هَجَمَتِ الْعَيْنَانِ وَنَفِهَتِ النَّفْسُ، صُمْ وَأَفْطِرْ، وَقُمْ وَنَمْ، صُمْ مِنَ الشَّهْرِ ثَلَاثًا، فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ صَوْمُ الدَّهْرِ، إِنَّ لِعَيْنِكَ حَقًّا، وَإِنَّ لِنَفْسِكَ حَقًّا، وَإِنَّ لِأَهْلِكَ حَقًّا "، قُلْتُ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ، إِنِّي أَجِدُ قُوَّةً قَالَ: " إِنْ كُنْتَ لَا بُدَّ فَاعِلًا فَصُمْ صَوْمَ نَبِيِّ اللهِ - يَعْنِي دَاوُدَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ - كَانَ يَصُومُ يَوْمًا وَيُفْطِرُ يَوْمًا وَلَا يَفِرُّ إِذَا لَاقَى

✧ “You fast all day and stand in prayer all night?” I said: Yes. He said: “Do not do that, for if you do that your eyes will become sunken and your soul will grow weary. Fast and break your fast, stand in prayer and sleep. Fast three days of the month, for that is like fasting a lifetime. Indeed your eyes have a right over you, your soul has a right over you, and your family has a right over you.” I said: O Prophet of God, I find strength. He said: “If you must do so, then fast the fast of the Prophet of God – meaning Dāwūd ﷺ – he would fast one day and break his fast one day, and he would not flee when he met the enemy.”
