Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا عَبِيدَةُ حَدَّثَنِي مَنْصُورٌ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ عَنْ طَاوُسٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ الْمَدِينَةِ يُرِ
يدُ مَكَّةَ فَصَامَ حَتَّى أَتَى عُسْفَانَ قَالَ فَدَعَا بِإِنَاءٍ فَوَضَعَهُ عَلَى يَدِهِ حَتَّى نَظَرَ النَّاسُ إِلَيْهِ ثُمَّ أَفْطَرَ قَالَ فَكَانَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ يَقُولُ مَنْ شَاءَ صَامَ وَمَنْ شَاءَ أَفْطَرَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ بْن أَحْمَد حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنٌ حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ فَذَكَرَهُ بِإِسْنَادِهِ أَوْ مَعْنَاهُ

English Translation
'Abidah narrated to us, Mansur narrated to me, from Mujahid, from Tawus, from Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنهما) who said: the Messenger of Allah ﷺ set out from Madinah intending Makkah and fasted until he reached 'Usfan. Then he called for a vessel and placed it on his hand so the people could see him, then he broke his fast. Ibn 'Abbas used to say: "Whoever wishes may fast, and whoever wishes may break his fast." 'Abdullah ibn Ahmad narrated to us, my father narrated to me, Husayn narrated to us, Shayban narrated to us, from Mansur — and he mentioned it with its chain or its meaning.
