Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ كَانَ فِي سَفَرٍ فَلَمَّا نَزَلُوا أَرْسَلُوا إِلَيْهِ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي فَقَالَ إِنِّي صَائِمٌ فَلَمَّا وَضَعُوا الطَّعَامَ وَكَادَ أَنْ يَفْرَغُوا جَاءَ فَقَالُوا هَلُمَّ فَكُلْ فَأَكَلَ فَنَ
ظَرَ الْقَوْمُ إِلَى الرَّسُولِ فَقَالَ مَا تَنْظُرُونَ فَقَالَ وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ قَالَ إِنِّي صَائِمٌ فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ صَدَقَ وَأَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ صَوْمُ شَهْرِ الصَّبْرِ وَثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ صَوْمُ الدَّهْرِ كُلِّهِ فَقَدْ صُمْتُ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ مِنْ أَوَّلِ الشَّهْرِ فَأَنَا مُفْطِرٌ فِي تَخْفِيفِ اللَّهِ صَائِمٌ فِي تَضْعِيفِ اللَّهِ

English Translation
Rawh narrated to us, Hammad narrated to us, from Thabit, from Abu Uthman, that Abu Hurayrah (رضي الله عنه) was on a journey. When they stopped and sent for him while he was praying, he said: 'I am fasting.' When they placed the food, he almost began to eat. They said: 'Were you not fasting?' He said: 'Yes, but I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: The fast of Ramadan while traveling—there is no blame on the one who fasts and no blame on the one who breaks it.'
