Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَظِيمِ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا الضَّحَّاكُ بْنُ مَخْلَدٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ رِفَاعَةَ، عَنْ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ كَانَ يَصُومُ الاِثْنَيْنِ وَالْخَمِيسَ ‏.‏ فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّكَ تَصُومُ يَوْمَ الاِثْنَيْنِ وَالْخَمِيسِ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ إِنَّ يَوْمَ الاِثْنَيْنِ وَالْخَمِيسِ يَغْفِرُ اللَّهُ فِيهِمَا لِكُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ إِلاَّ مُهْتَجِرَيْنِ يَقُولُ دَعْهُمَا حَتَّى يَصْطَلِحَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Al-Abbas ibn Abd al-Azim al-Anbari narrated to us; al-Dahhak ibn Makhlad narrated to us, from Muhammad ibn Rifa‘ah, from Suhayl ibn Abi Salih, from his father, from Abu Hurayrah, that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to fast on Mondays and Thursdays. It was said, ‘Messenger of Allah, you fast on Mondays and Thursdays.’ He said: ‘On Mondays and Thursdays, Allah forgives every Muslim except two who have severed relations with one another. He says, “Leave them until they reconcile.”’
