23 - Chapter: Breaking the Fast Before Sunset

2359 - Harun ibn 'Abdullah and Muhammad ibn al-'Ala' narrated to us—the meaning [being the same]—they said: Abu Usamah narrated to us, Hisham ibn 'Urwah narrated to us, from Fatimah bint al-Mundhir, from Asma' bint Abi Bakr, who said: We broke our fast one day during Ramadan in cloudy weather in the time of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and then the sun appeared. Abu Usamah said: I said to Hisham: Were they commanded to make it up? He said: Is there any alternative to that?!

=============================================
And it was also recorded by Ibn al-Sunni in "Amal al-Yawm wa al-Laylah" (479) via the chain of Sufyan al-Thawri, from Husayn ibn 'Abd al-Rahman, from a man, from Mu'adh ibn Zuhrah, with an additional man before Mu'adh ibn Zuhrah.

And it was recorded by Ibn Sa'd in "al-Tabaqat" 6/189 via the chain of Sufyan al-Thawri, from Husayn, from Mu'adh, from al-Rabi' ibn Khuthaym as his own statement. Thus he made it a saying of al-Rabi' ibn Khuthaym, not a saying of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and it appears that this is the correct version, for it was transmitted with an isnad from another route in Ibn Sa'd also 6/189 via the chain of Sharik al-Nakha'i, from Husayn, from Hilal ibn Yisaf, from al-Rabi' ibn Khuthaym, as his own statement—and Sharik is considered reliable when corroborated.

On this topic, there is also a hadith from Ibn 'Abbas recorded by al-Daraqutni in his "Sunan" (2280), al-Tabarani in "al-Kabir" (12720), and Ibn al-Sunni in "Amal al-Yawm wa al-Laylah" (480). In its chain is 'Abd al-Malik ibn Harun, and al-Hafiz said in "al-Talkhis" 2/202: Its chain is weak, and al-Dhahabi said in "al-Du'afa'": They abandoned him.

And another from the hadith of Anas ibn Malik recorded by al-Tabarani in "al-Awsat" (7545) and in "al-Saghir" (912), and by Abu Nu'aym in "Tarikh Asbahan" 2/217-218. In its chain is Dawud ibn al-Zabraqan, who is abandoned, and al-Azdi declared him a liar.

(1) Its chain is authentic. Abu Usamah: he is Hammad ibn Usamah al-Qurashi.
And it was recorded by al-Bukhari (1959) and Ibn Majah (1674) via multiple routes from Abu Usamah, with this chain.
And it is in "Musnad Ahmad" (26927).
