حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الصَّمَدِ - أَمْلَى مِنْ أَصْلِهِ - قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ الْفَيَّاضِ، عَنْ أَبِي عِيَاضٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ:
أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الصَّوْمِ، فَقَالَ: صُمْ يَوْمًا مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ، وَلَكَ أَجْرُ مَا بَقِيَ، قُلْتُ: إِنِّي أُطِيقُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ: " صُمْ يَوْمَيْنِ مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ، وَلَكَ أَجْرُ مَا بَقِيَ "، قُلْتُ: إِنِّي أُطِيقُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ. قَالَ: " صُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَكَ أَجْرُ مَا بَقِيَ "، قُلْتُ: إِنِّي أُطِيقُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ. قَالَ: " صُمْ أَرْبَعَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَكَ أَجْرُ مَا بَقِيَ " قَالَ: إِنِّي أُطِيقُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: إِنَّ أَحَبَّ الصِّيَامِ صَوْمُ دَاوُدَ، كَانَ يَصُومُ يَوْمًا، وَيُفْطِرُ يَوْمًا

✧ I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and asked him about fasting. He said, 'Fast one day from each month, and you will have the reward of the remainder.' I said, 'I am able to do more than that.' He said, 'Fast two days from each month, and you will have the reward of the remainder.' I said, 'I am able to do more than that.' He said, 'Fast three days, and you will have the reward of the remainder.' I said, 'I am able to do more than that.' He said, 'Fast four days, and you will have the reward of the remainder.' He said, 'I am able to do more than that.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said, 'Indeed the most beloved of fasting is the fasting of Dawud; he would fast one day and break his fast one day.'
