Sunan Abi Dawud 1389
حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " صُمْ مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ ثَلاَثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَاقْرَإِ الْقُرْآنَ فِي شَهْرٍ " . فَنَاقَصَنِي وَنَاقَصْتُهُ فَقَالَ " صُمْ يَوْمًا وَأَفْطِرْ يَوْمًا " . قَالَ عَطَاءٌ وَاخْتَلَفْنَا عَنْ أَبِي فَقَالَ بَعْضُنَا سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَقَالَ بَعْضُنَا خَمْسًا .
Sulayman ibn Harb informed us: Hammad informed us, from Ata ibn al-Saib, from his father, from Abd Allah ibn Amr, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: Fast three days each month and recite the Quran in a month. He kept reducing the interval for me, and I kept asking him to reduce it, until he said: Fast one day and do not fast the next. Ata said: We differed in what we transmitted from my father: some of us said seven days, and some said five.
