حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْجُرَيْرِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي السَّلِيلِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مُجِيبَةَ الْبَاهِلِيَّةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِيهَا أَوْ عَمِّهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّهُ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثُمَّ انْطَلَقَ. فَأَتَاهُ بَعْدَ سَنَةٍ وَقَدْ تَغَيَّرَتْ حَالُهُ وَهَيْئَتُهُ. فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَمَا تَعْرِفُنِي ؟ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ وَمَنْ أَنْتَ ؟ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَنَا الْبَاهِلِيُّ الَّذِي جِئْتُكَ عَامَ الْأَوَّلِ. قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَمَا غَيَّرَكَ وَقَدْ كُنْتَ حَسَنَ الْهَيْئَةِ ؟ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مَا أَكَلْتُ طَعَامًا إِلَّا بِلَيْلٍ مُنْذُ فَارَقْتُكَ. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ لِمَ عَذَّبْتَ نَفْسَكَ ؟ ثُمَّ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ صُمْ شَهْرَ الصَّبْرِ وَيَوْمًا مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ . قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ زِدْنِي فَإِنَّ بِي قُوَّةً. قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ صُمْ يَوْمَيْنِ. قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ زِدْنِي. قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ صُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ. قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ زِدْنِي. قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ صُمْ مِنَ الْحُرُمِ وَاتْرُكْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏صُمْ مِنَ الْحُرُمِ وَاتْرُكْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏صُمْ مِنَ الْحُرُمِ وَاتْرُكْ . وَقَالَ بِأَصَابِعِهِ الثَّلَاثَةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَضَمَّهَا ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَهَا.

He visited the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌ وسلم. He then went away and came to him (again) after one year when his condition and appearance had changed. He said: Messenger of Allah, do you not recognize me? He asked: Who are you? He replied: I am al-Bahili who came to you last year. He said: What has changed you? You were looking well, then you were good in appearance? He said: I have only food at night since I departed from you. Thereupon the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: Why did you torment yourself? Fast during Ramadan (the month of patience) and fast for one day every month. He said: Increase it for me, for I have (more) strength. He said: Fast two days. He again said: Increase it for me. He said: Fast three days. He again said: Increase it for me. He said: Fast during the inviolable months and then stop; fast during the inviolable months and then stop; fast during the inviolable months and then stop. He indicated by his three fingers, and joined them and then opened them.
