Sahih Muslim Book - 13, Hadith - 2685

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرٌ - يَعْنِى ابْنَ مُضَرَ - عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ يَزِيدَ مَوْلَى سَلَمَةَ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الأَكْوَعِ - رضى الله عنه - قَالَ لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ (وَعَلَى الَّذِينَ يُطِيقُونَهُ فِدْيَةٌ طَعَامُ مِسْكِينٍ) كَانَ مَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُفْطِرَ وَيَفْتَدِىَ. حَتَّى نَزَلَتِ الآيَةُ الَّتِى بَعْدَهَا فَنَسَخَتْهَا.

It was narrated that Salamah bin Al-Akwa’ [may Allah be pleased with them] said: “When the following verse was revealed: ‘And as for those who can fast with difficulty, (e.g. an old man), they have (a choice either to fast or) to feed a Miskin (poor person)(for every day)..’ those who wanted to break the fast and pay the Fidyah (did so), until the verse which comes after it was revealed, which abrogated it.”
