And it was narrated to us by Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah, who said: Abdullah ibn Numayr narrated to us. (Another chain:) And Ibn Numayr narrated to us, who said: My father narrated to us, who said: Ubaydullah narrated to us, from Nafi', from Ibn 'Umar — may Allah be pleased with them both — that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, practiced continuous fasting (wisal) in Ramadan, so the people also practiced continuous fasting, and he forbade them from it. It was said to him: "But you practice continuous fasting." He said: "I am not like you; I am fed and given to drink."
