Fasting

30/48. Chapter:

To observe Saum (fast) continuously

لِقَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى: {ثُمَّ أَتِمُّوا الصِّيَامَ إِلَى اللَّيْلِ} وَنَهَى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْهُ رَحْمَةً لَهُمْ وَإِبْقَاءً عَلَيْهِمْ، وَمَا يُكْرَهُ مِنَ التَّعَمُّقِ.And whoever says that there is no Saum (fast) at night according to the Statement of Allah عز وجل: “Then complete your fast till the nightfall...” (V.2:187). And the Prophet ﷺ forbade it (i.e., Al-Wisal) with mercy to them (Muslims) and to keep them healthy. And what is hated as regards excessive practices of worshipping.

Sahih Bukhari : 1964

حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَمُحَمَّدٌ، قَالاَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدَةُ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتْ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنِ الْوِصَالِ، رَحْمَةً لَهُمْ فَقَالُوا إِنَّكَ تُوَاصِلُ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنِّي لَسْتُ كَهَيْئَتِكُمْ، إِنِّي يُطْعِمُنِي رَبِّي وَيَسْقِينِ ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ عُثْمَانُ رَحْمَةً لَهُمْ‏.‏

Narrated Aisha: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) forbade Al-Wisal out of mercy to them. They said to him, "But you practice Al- Wisal?" He said, "I am not similar to you, for my Lord gives me food and drink. "
