حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلٍ، عَنْ حُصَيْنٍ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ صَيْفِيٍّ، قَالَ: قَالَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ يَوْمَ عَاشُورَاءَ: ‏"‏ مِنْكُمْ أَحَدٌ طَعِمَ الْيَوْمَ؟ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قُلْنَا: مِنَّا طَعِمَ وَمِنَّا مَنْ لَمْ يَطْعَمْ ‏.‏ قَالَ: ‏"‏ فَأَتِمُّوا بَقِيَّةَ يَوْمِكُمْ. مَنْ كَانَ طَعِمَ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَطْعَمْ. فَأَرْسِلُوا إِلَى أَهْلِ الْعَرُوضِ فَلْيُتِمُّوا بَقِيَّةَ يَوْمِهِمْ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ يَعْنِي أَهْلَ الْعَرُوضِ حَوْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ ‏.‏
“Has anyone among you eaten today?” We said: “Some of us have eaten and some of us have not.” He said: “Complete the rest of your day (i.e., do not eat for the rest of the day), whoever has eaten and whoever has not eaten. And send word to the people of the suburbs to complete the rest of their day.” He was referring to the people of the suburbs around Al-Madinah.
Narrated by It was narrated from Muhammad bin Saifi that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to us on the Day of ‘Ashura’:

Context

On the Day of 'Ashura', the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) addressed his companions about the significance of completing the day, regardless of whether they had eaten or not. This guidance highlights the importance of unity and shared experiences among the community, encouraging those who had eaten to refrain from further consumption and to support those who had not.

Modern Application

This principle can be applied in modern contexts where communal fasting or events occur, reminding individuals to consider the collective experience and to show solidarity with those who may be less fortunate or unable to partake.

Topics

This hadith is tagged with Fasting and Eating Etiquette because it emphasizes the importance of communal practices and the etiquette surrounding food consumption during significant days.

[Fasting for] a limited number of days. So whoever among you is ill or on a journey [during them] - then an equal number of days [are to be made up]. And upon those who are able [to fast, but with hardship] - a ransom [as substitute] of feeding a poor person [each day]. And whoever volunteers excess - it is better for him. But to fast is best for you, if you only knew.
