حَدَّثَنَا أَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ وَأَبُو أَحْمَدَ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَن أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَن الْبَرَاءِ قَالَ كَانَ أَصْحَابُ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا كَانَ الرَّجُلُ صَائِمًا فَحَضَرَ الْإِفْطَارُ فَنَامَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُفْطِرَ لَمْ يَأْكُلْ لَيْلَتَهُ وَلَا يَوْمَهُ حَتَّى يُمْسِيَ وَإِنَّ فُلَانًا الْأَنْصَارِيَّ كَانَ صَائِمًا فَلَمَّا حَضَرَهُ الْإِفْطَارُ أَتَى امْرَأَتَهُ فَقَالَ هَلْ عِنْدَكِ مِنْ طَعَامٍ قَالَتْ لَا وَلَكِنْ أَنْطَلِقُ فَأَطْلُبُ لَكَ فَغَلَبَتْهُ عَيْنُهُ وَجَاءَتْ امْرَأَتُهُ فَلَمَّا رَأَتْهُ قَالَتْ خَيْبَةٌ لَكَ فَأَصْبَحَ فَلَمَّا انْتَصَفَ النَّهَارُ غُشِيَ عَلَيْهِ فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ { أُحِلَّ لَكُمْ لَيْلَةَ الصِّيَامِ الرَّفَثُ إِلَى نِسَائِكُمْ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ حَتَّى يَتَبَيَّنَ لَكُمْ الْخَيْطُ الْأَبْيَضُ مِنْ الْخَيْطِ الْأَسْوَدِ } قَالَ أَبُو أَحْمَدَ وَإِنَّ قَيْسَ بْنَ صِرْمَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ جَاءَ فَنَامَ فَذَكَرَهُ حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ عَن الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ أَنَّ أَحَدَهُمْ كَانَ إِذَا نَامَ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوًا مِنْ حَدِيثِ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ نَزَلَتْ فِي أَبِي قَيْسِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو.
English Translation
Aswad b. 'Amir and Abu Ahmad told us, they said Isra'il told us, from Abu Ishaq, from al-Bara', who said: The Companions of Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, when a man was fasting and the time for breaking the fast came and he fell asleep before breaking it, he would not eat that night nor the following day until evening. And a certain man of the Ansar was fasting, and when the time for breaking his fast came, he went to his wife and said: Do you have any food? She said: No, but let me go and seek some for you. Then sleep overcame him, and his wife came, and when she saw him she said: What a disappointment for you! In the morning, when the day reached midday, he fainted. That was mentioned to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and this verse was revealed: "It has been made permissible for you, on the night of the fast, to go in unto your wives..." up to His saying "...until the white thread of dawn becomes distinct to you from the black thread." Abu Ahmad said: And Qays b. Sirmah al-Ansari came and slept, and the same was mentioned about him. Ahmad b. 'Abd al-Malik told us, he said Zuhayr told us, Abu Ishaq told us, from al-Bara' b. 'Azib, that one of them, when he slept, the same was mentioned as in the hadith of Isra'il, except that he said: It was revealed concerning Abu Qays b. 'Amr.
