Hadith 1018:23

Waki’ narrated to us, Sufyan narrated to us, from ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn ‘Abis, from ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Layla, from some of the companions of Muhammad, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, who said: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, only forbade cupping for the fasting person and continuous fasting (wisal) out of consideration for his companions; he did not declare them unlawful. They said: "O Messenger of Allah, but you practice continuous fasting." He said: "I am not like one of you; I spend the night while my Lord feeds me and gives me drink."

حدثنا وكيع، حدثنا سفيان، عن عبد الرحمن بن عابس، عن عبد الرحمن بن أبي ليلى، عن بعض أصحاب محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم، قال: إنما نهى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم عن الحجامة للصائم، والوصال في الصيام؛ إبقاء على أصحابه لم يحرمهما، قالوا: يا رسول الله، فإنك تواصل قال: " إني لست كأحدكم، إني أظل يطعمني ربي ويسقيني "
