Hadith 134

Sahih Muslim

Book 13: The Book of Fasting

Chapter 17

The choice between fasting and not fasting when travelling

باب التَّخْيِيرِ فِي الصَّوْمِ وَالْفِطْرِ فِي السَّفَرِ ‏‏

Sahih Muslim 1121d
وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَأَبُو كُرَيْبٍ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، كِلاَهُمَا عَنْ هِشَامٍ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ أَنَّ حَمْزَةَ، قَالَ إِنِّي رَجُلٌ أَصُومُ أَفَأَصُومُ فِي السَّفَرِ.
This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Hisham with the same chain of transmitters that Hamza said:

I am a person much used to fasting. Should I fast during the journey? (The rest of the hadith is the same.)
