It is narrated from Sulayman bin Yasar that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, forbade fasting during the days of Mina.

It is narrated from Ibn Shihab that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, sent our master Abdullah bin Hudhafah, may Allah be pleased with him, during the days of Mina to go around among the people and announce that these are days of eating, drinking, and remembering Allah.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Huraira, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade fasting on two days: one is the day of Eid al-Fitr and the other is the day of Eid al-Adha.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) went to his father, Sayyiduna Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him), and found him eating food, so he called Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him). Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I am fasting. He said: In these days, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade us from fasting and commanded us to break the fast in these days.

Imam Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) said that those days were the days of Tashreeq (i.e., the 11th, 12th, and 13th of Dhul-Hijjah).
