أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو غَسَّانَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو حَازِمٍ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ قَالَ
نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ {وَكُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا حَتَّى يَتَبَيَّنَ لَكُمُ الْخَيْطُ الْأَبْيَضُ مِنَ الْخَيْطِ الْأَسْوَدِ} [البقرة 187] وَلَمْ يَنْزِلْ {مِنَ الْفَجْرِ} [البقرة 187] فَكَانَ رِجَالٌ إِذَا أَرَادُوا الصَّوْمَ رَبَطَ أَحَدُهُمْ فِي رِجْلِهِ الْخَيْطَ الْأَبْيَضَ وَالْخَيْطَ الْأَسْوَدَ وَلَا يَزَالُ يَأْكُلُ وَيُشْرَبُ حَتَّى يَتَبَيَّنَ لَهُ رُؤْيَتُهُمَا فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ {مِنَ الْفَجْرِ} [البقرة 187] فَعَلِمُوا أَنَّمَا يَعْنِي بِذَلِكَ اللَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ

✧ This verse was revealed: {And eat and drink until the white thread of dawn becomes distinct to you from the black thread} [al-Baqarah: 187], without {from the dawn} [al-Baqarah: 187] being revealed. So there were men who, when they wanted to fast, one of them would tie to his leg a white thread and a black thread and would keep eating and drinking until he could clearly see the two; then God, blessed and exalted, afterwards revealed {from the dawn} [al-Baqarah: 187], and they knew that it meant night and day.
