أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُكْرَمِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ الْبِرْتِيُّ بِبَغْدَادَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمَدِينِيِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُهَلَّبُ بْنُ أَبِي حَبِيبَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ
«لَا يَقُولَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ إِنِّي صُمْتُ رَمَضَانَ كُلَّهُ وَقُمْتُهُ» قَالَ فَلَا أَدْرِي أَكَرِهَ التَّزْكِيَةَ أَمْ قَالَ «لَا بُدَّ مِنْ رَقْدَةٍ أَوْ غَفَلَةٍ»
