49 - Chapter on Fasting the Days of Tashrīq

2418 - ʿAbdullāh ibn Maslamah al-Qaʿnabī narrated to us, from Mālik, from Yazīd ibn al-Hād, from Abū Murrah, the freed slave of Umm Hāniʾ, that he entered with ʿAbdullāh ibn ʿAmr upon his father ʿAmr ibn al-ʿĀṣ. He offered food to them and said, "Eat." He said, "I am fasting." ʿAmr said, "Eat, for these are the days on which the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, used to command us to break the fast and forbid us from fasting them." Mālik said, "And they are the days of Tashrīq."

It was also recorded by al-Bukhārī (1991) and (1992) via the chain of Mūsā ibn Ismāʿīl, with this chain, without mentioning the garment.

It was also recorded by Muslim following (1138) (141), and al-Tirmidhī (781) via the chain of ʿAmr ibn Yaḥyā, with it, restricted to fasting.

It was also recorded separately by al-Bukhārī (1197), (1864), and (1995), Muslim following (1138) (140), Ibn Mājah (1721), and al-Nasāʾī in "al-Kubrā" (2803–2806) via the chain of Qazaʿah ibn Yaḥyā; and al-Bukhārī (586) and (6284), and Muslim (827) via the chain of ʿAṭāʾ ibn Yazīd al-Laythī; and al-Bukhārī (367) and (5822) via the chain of ʿUbaydullāh ibn ʿAbdullāh; and al-Bukhārī (5820) via the chain of ʿĀmir ibn Saʿd — all four of them from Abū Saʿīd al-Khudrī, with it.

It is also in "Musnad Aḥmad" (11910) and "Ṣaḥīḥ Ibn Ḥibbān" (3599).

Al-Sammāʾ (the wrapping that covers the entire body): that a man wraps himself in a single garment with nothing else on him, then raises it from one of its sides and places it on one of his shoulders, so that his nakedness becomes exposed. It was also said: that he wraps it around his entire body such that he leaves no opening through which his hand can come out.

Al-Iḥtibāʾ (sitting on the buttocks with knees drawn up): that a man draws his legs up to his belly with a garment that gathers them together with his back and ties it around them. Al-Iḥtibāʾ may also be done with the hands instead of a garment. He was only forbidden from it because if he has nothing on but a single garment, perhaps it might move or shift, and his nakedness would become exposed. This was stated in "al-Nihāyah."

(1) Its chain is authentic. Mālik: he is Ibn Anas. Yazīd ibn al-Hād: he is Yazīd ibn ʿAbdullāh al-Laythī. Abū Murrah: he is Yazīd al-Hāshimī.
It is also in "al-Muwaṭṭaʾ" (1369) in the narration of Abū Muṣʿab al-Zuhrī, from Mālik. =
