[2624] 102 – (1120) It was narrated that RabI'ah said: "Qaza'ah narrated to me: 'I came to Abü Sa'eed Al-KhudrI [may Allah be pleased with them] while he was surrounded by people. When the people dispersed from around him, I said: "I am not going to ask you about what these people were asking." And I asked him about fasting while travelling." He said: "We traveled with the Messenger of Allah to Makkah when we were fasting. We made a stop, and the Messenger of Allah said: 'You have drawn near to your enemy, and breaking- the fast will make you stronger.' This was a concession, so some of us fasted and some did not. Then we made another stop and he said: 'In the morning, you are going to meet your enemy. And breaking the fast will make you stronger, so break the fast.' He emphasized it (the second time), so we broke the fast." Then he said: "I remember we fasted with the Messenger of Allah after that, when travelling." Chapter 17.
