Chapter 9 · Fastingحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُصَفَّى، حَدَّثَنَا بَقِيَّةُ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِبِلَالٍ: الْغَدَاءُ يَا بِلَالُ ، فَقَالَ: إِنِّي صَائِمٌ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: نَأْكُلُ أَرْزَاقَنَا، وَفَضْلُ رِزْقِ بِلَالٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ، أَشَعَرْتَ يَا بِلَالُ أَنَّ الصَّائِمَ تُسَبِّحُ عِظَامُهُ، وَتَسْتَغْفِرُ لَهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ مَا أُكِلَ عِنْدَهُ .

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to Bilal رضی اللہ عنہ : ‘Come and eat, O Bilal.’ He said: ‘I am fasting.’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘We are eating our provision, but most of Bilal’s provision is in Paradise. Do you realise, O Bilal, that the bones of the fasting person glorify Allah and the angels pray for forgiveness for him so long as food is eaten in front of him?’”
