وعن أم عمارة الأنصارية، رضي الله عنها أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم دخل عليها فقدمت إليه طعامًا فقال ‏"‏ كلي‏"‏ فقالت‏:‏ إني صائمة، فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم‏:‏ ‏"‏إن الصائم تصلي عليه الملائكة إذا أكل عنده حتى يفرغوا‏"‏ وربما قال‏:‏ ‏"‏حتى يشبعوا‏"‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه الترمذي وقال‏:‏ حديث حسن‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏
Umm 'Umarah Al-Ansariyah (May Allah be pleased with her) reported: Once the Prophet (ﷺ) visited us and I served him some food. He (ﷺ) asked me to eat. I replied that I was observing (optional) fast. He (ﷺ) said, "When people eat by a person observing fast, the angels keep asking Allah's forgiveness for that person until they have had their fill.".
