English Translation

It was narrated from Abu Hurayra (رضي الله عنه) — via Sufyan, from Abu al-Zinad, from al-A'raj — that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Beware of al-wisal [continuous fasting without breaking at iftar].' They said: 'O Messenger of Allah, but you yourself practice wisal.' He said: 'I am not like any of you — I spend the night with my Lord; He feeds me and gives me drink.'
