Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ أَنَّ جَعْفَرَ بْنَ الْمُطَّلِبِ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ دَخَلَ عَلَى عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ فَدَعَاهُ إِلَى الْغَدَاءِ فَقَالَ إِنِّي صَائِمٌ ثُمَّ الثَّانِيَةَ كَذَلِكَ ثُمَّ الثَّالِثَةَ كَذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَا إِلَّا أَنْ تَكُونَ سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.
English Translation
Rawh told us, Ibn Jurayj told us, Sa'id ibn Kathir informed me, that Ja'far ibn al-Muttalib informed him, that Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-As came to Amr ibn al-As, who invited him to a meal. He said, "I am fasting." Then a second time likewise, then a third time likewise. Amr said, "No, [I will not believe you] unless you heard it from the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him." He said, "I indeed heard it from the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him."
