*First Hadīth Of The Day*


حَدَّثَنَا  مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ  أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله  عنه ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ لاَ يَتَقَدَّمَنَّ  أَحَدُكُمْ رَمَضَانَ بِصَوْمِ يَوْمٍ أَوْ يَوْمَيْنِ، إِلاَّ أَنْ  يَكُونَ رَجُلٌ كَانَ يَصُومُ صَوْمَهُ فَلْيَصُمْ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ ‏"

‏‏.‏

 Narrated Abu Huraira:                        

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "None of you should fast a day or two before the month of Ramadan unless he has  the habit of fasting (Nawafil) (and if his fasting coincides with that day) then he can fast that day."

*Second Hadīth Of The Day*


حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ  بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ ـ  رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ كَانَ أَصْحَابُ مُحَمَّدٍ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذَا  كَانَ الرَّجُلُ صَائِمًا، فَحَضَرَ الإِفْطَارُ، فَنَامَ قَبْلَ أَنْ  يُفْطِرَ لَمْ يَأْكُلْ لَيْلَتَهُ وَلاَ يَوْمَهُ، حَتَّى يُمْسِيَ،  وَإِنَّ قَيْسَ بْنَ صِرْمَةَ الأَنْصَارِيَّ كَانَ صَائِمًا، فَلَمَّا  حَضَرَ الإِفْطَارُ أَتَى امْرَأَتَهُ، فَقَالَ لَهَا أَعِنْدَكِ طَعَامٌ  قَالَتْ لاَ وَلَكِنْ أَنْطَلِقُ، فَأَطْلُبُ لَكَ‏.‏ وَكَانَ يَوْمَهُ  يَعْمَلُ، فَغَلَبَتْهُ عَيْنَاهُ، فَجَاءَتْهُ امْرَأَتُهُ، فَلَمَّا  رَأَتْهُ قَالَتْ خَيْبَةً لَكَ‏.‏ فَلَمَّا انْتَصَفَ النَّهَارُ غُشِيَ  عَلَيْهِ، فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَنَزَلَتْ  هَذِهِ الآيَةُ ‏{‏أُحِلَّ لَكُمْ لَيْلَةَ الصِّيَامِ الرَّفَثُ إِلَى نِسَائِكُمْ‏}‏ فَفَرِحُوا بِهَا فَرَحًا شَدِيدًا، وَنَزَلَتْ ‏{‏وَكُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا حَتَّى يَتَبَيَّنَ لَكُمُ الْخَيْطُ الأَبْيَضُ مِنَ الْخَيْطِ الأَسْوَدِ‏}‏‏.‏


 Narrated Al-Bara:                        

It was the custom among the companions of Muhammad that if any of them was fasting and the food  was presented (for breaking his fast), but he slept before eating, he would not eat that night and the  following day till sunset.  Qais bin Sirma-al-Ansari was fasting and came to his wife at the time of Iftar (breaking one's fast) and  asked her whether she had anything to eat. She replied, "No, but I would go and bring some for you."  He used to do hard work during the day, so he was overwhelmed by sleep and slept. When his wife  came and saw him, she said, "Disappointment for you." When it was midday on the following day, he  fainted and the Prophet (ﷺ) was informed about the whole matter and the following verses were revealed:  "You are permitted To go to your wives (for sexual relation) At the night of fasting." So, they were  overjoyed by it. And then Allah also revealed: "And eat and drink Until the white thread Of dawn  appears to you Distinct from the black thread (of the night)." (2.187)

*Third Hadīth Of The Day*


حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ  مِنْهَالٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي حُصَيْنُ بْنُ عَبْدِ  الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ ـ رضى الله عنه  ـ قَالَ لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ ‏{‏حَتَّى يَتَبَيَّنَ لَكُمُ الْخَيْطُ الأَبْيَضُ مِنَ الْخَيْطِ الأَسْوَدِ‏}‏  عَمَدْتُ إِلَى عِقَالٍ أَسْوَدَ وَإِلَى عِقَالٍ أَبْيَضَ،  فَجَعَلْتُهُمَا تَحْتَ وِسَادَتِي، فَجَعَلْتُ أَنْظُرُ فِي اللَّيْلِ،  فَلاَ يَسْتَبِينُ لِي، فَغَدَوْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه  وسلم فَذَكَرْتُ لَهُ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ إِنَّمَا ذَلِكَ سَوَادُ  اللَّيْلِ وَبَيَاضُ النَّهَارِ ‏"‏‏.‏


 Narrated `Adi bin Hatim:                        

When the above verses were revealed: 'Until the white thread appears to you, distinct from the black  thread,' I took two (hair) strings, one black and the other white, and kept them under my pillow and  went on looking at them throughout the night but could not make anything out of it. So, the next  morning I went to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and told him the whole story. He explained to me, "That verse  means the darkness of the night and the whiteness of the dawn."
