Sahih Muslim Book - 13, Hadith - 2560

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِى شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِىُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ وَعَبَّادُ بْنُ الْعَوَّامِ عَنِ الشَّيْبَانِىِّ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِى أَوْفَى - رضى الله عنه - قَالَ كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- فِى سَفَرٍ فَلَمَّا غَابَتِ الشَّمْسُ قَالَ لِرَجُلٍ « انْزِلْ فَاجْدَحْ لَنَا ». فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَوْ أَمْسَيْتَ. قَالَ « انْزِلْ فَاجْدَحْ لَنَا ». قَالَ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا نَهَارًا. فَنَزَلَ فَجَدَحَ لَهُ فَشَرِبَ ثُمَّ قَالَ « إِذَا رَأَيْتُمُ اللَّيْلَ قَدْ أَقْبَلَ مِنْ هَا هُنَا - وَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ نَحْوَ الْمَشْرِقِ - فَقَدْ أَفْطَرَ الصَّائِمُ ».

It was narrated that Ibn Abi Awfa [may Allah be pleased with them] said: “We were with Messenger of Allah (SAW) on a journey, and when the sun set, he said to one man: “Dismount and mix something for us.’ He said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, why not wait till evening?’ He said: ‘Dismount and mix something for us.’ He said: ‘It is still day.’ But he dismounted and mixed something for him to drink, then he said: ‘When you see that the night has come from here’ – and he pointed towards the east-‘then it is time for the fasting person to break his fast.’”
