حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا مَهْدِيُّ بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ عَنْ غَيْلَانَ بْنِ جَرِيرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَعْبَدٍ عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ صَوْمِ يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ فَقَالَ أَحْتَسِبُ عَلَى اللَّهِ كَفَّارَةَ سَنَتَيْنِ مَاضِيَةٍ وَمُسْتَقْبَلَةٍ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا يَصُومُ الدَّهْرَ كُلَّهُ قَالَ لَا صَامَ وَلَا أَفْطَرَ أَوْ مَا صَامَ وَمَا أَفْطَرَ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا يَصُومُ يَوْمًا وَيُفْطِرُ يَوْمًا قَالَ ذَاكَ صَوْمُ أَخِي دَاوُدَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا يَصُومُ يَوْمًا وَيُفْطِرُ يَوْمَيْنِ قَالَ وَدِدْتُ أَنِّي طُوِّقْتُ ذَلِكَ قَالَ أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا يَصُومُ يَوْمَيْنِ وَيُفْطِرُ يَوْمًا قَالَ وَمَنْ يُطِيقُ ذَلِكَ قَالَ وَسُئِلَ عَنْ صَوْمِ يَوْمِ عَاشُورَاءَ قَالَ أَحْتَسِبُ عَلَى اللَّهِ كَفَّارَةَ سَنَةٍ.

Waki' told us, Mahdi ibn Maymun told us, from Ghaylan ibn Jarir, from Abdullah ibn Ma'bad, from Abu Qatada: that a man asked the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, about fasting the day of Arafah. He said: I hope that Allah will make it an expiation for the past year and the coming year. He said: O Messenger of Allah, what do you say of a man who fasts all the time? He said: He neither fasted nor broke his fast - or: he did not fast and did not break his fast. He said: O Messenger of Allah, what do you say of a man who fasts a day and breaks his fast a day? He said: That is the fasting of my brother David, peace be upon him. He said: O Messenger of Allah, what do you say of a man who fasts a day and breaks his fast two days? He said: I wish I had the strength for that. He said: What do you say of a man who fasts two days and breaks his fast a day? He said: Who can bear that? He said: And he was asked about fasting the day of Ashura. He said: I hope that Allah will make it an expiation for the past year.
