Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدُ وَعَفَّانُ قَالَا ثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ إِيَادٍ حَدَّثَنَا إِيَادٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ لَقِيطٍ عَنْ لَيْلَى امْرَأَةِ بَشِيرٍ قَالَتْ أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَصُومَ يَوْمَيْنِ مُوَاصِلَةً فَمَنَعَنِي بَشِيرٌ وَقَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَى عَنْهُ وَقَالَ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ النَّصَارَى وَقَالَ عَفَّانُ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ النَّصَارَى وَلَكِنْ صُومُوا كَمَا أَمَرَكُمْ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَأَتِمُّوا الصِّيَامَ إِلَى اللَّيْلِ فَإِذَا كَانَ اللَّيْلُ فَأَفْطِرُوا.
English Translation
Abu al-Walid and Affan told us, they said: Ubaydullah ibn Iyad told us: Iyad — namely ibn Laqit — told us, from Layla, wife of Bashir, who said: I wanted to fast two days consecutively without breaking my fast, but Bashir prevented me and said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade that and said: The Christians do that. (Affan said: he said: 'the Christians do that, but rather fast as Allah, Mighty and Majestic, has commanded you, and complete the fast until night; then when night comes, break your fast.')
