Arabic (Original)
أَخْبَرَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنِ السَّائِبِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنِ الْمُطَّلِبِ بْنِ أَبِي وَدَاعَةَ السَّهْمِيِّ عَنْ حَفْصَةَ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ «إِنْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي فِي سُبْحَتِهِ قَاعِدًا فَيَقْرَأُ بِالسُّورَةِ فَيُرَتِّلُهَا حَتَّى تَكُونَ أَطْوَلَ مِنْ أَطْوَلَ مِنْهَا»
English Translation
Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated: A man came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) seeking a legal ruling. She said: I was listening from behind the door. He said: 'O Messenger of Allah, the call to prayer catches me while I am in a state of major ritual impurity. Should I fast?' The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 'The call to prayer catches me while I am in a state of major ritual impurity, and I fast.' He said: 'You are not like us, O Messenger of Allah. Allah has forgiven your past and future sins.' He said: 'By Allah, I hope that I am the most fearful of you of Allah and the most knowledgeable of you about that for which I have fear.'
