Muhammad bin Ka'b narrates: I visited Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) in the month of Ramadan. He was about to set out on a journey, his mount was ready, and he had put on his travel clothes. The sun was about to set. He called for food and ate it, then mounted his ride. I asked him: Is this the Sunnah? He replied: Yes!

Amr bin Aamir reports: I heard Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrate that he said: Sayyiduna Abu Musa said to me: It has been told to me that when you set out (on a journey), you depart while fasting, and when you enter the city, you are still in a state of fasting. When you set out (for a journey), then set out without fasting, and when you enter (the city upon returning from a journey), then enter without fasting.

Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: I set out with the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) for Umrah in the month of Ramadan. The Prophet (peace be upon him) did not fast, but I was fasting. The Prophet (peace be upon him) performed shortened prayers, and I performed the full prayers. I said: O Messenger of Allah! May my parents be sacrificed for you! You did not fast, but I did; you performed shortened prayers, but I performed the full prayers. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Aisha! You have done well."

Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed Umrah, and I was with him. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed Qasr (shortened) prayer, and I performed the complete prayer. You did not fast, and I fasted. When I reached near Makkah, I said: O Messenger of Allah! May my parents be sacrificed for you! You performed Qasr prayer, I performed the complete prayer; you did not fast, I fasted. So the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Aisha! You have done right." The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not object to me regarding this. The Sheikh says: The first narration is authentic and its chain is connected. The narrator named Abdur Rahman lived in the time of Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), he was present in her service when he was still a child near the age of puberty, and he was with his father at that time. He heard hadith from Lady Aisha.

Abdur Rahman bin Aswad reports: I was present in the service of Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), and there was a person with her. He asked: O mother! What makes ghusl obligatory? Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) replied: When the private parts meet, ghusl becomes obligatory.

Abdur Rahman bin Aswad narrates: My father used to send me to the service of Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), and I would ask her questions. When the year came in which I experienced a wet dream, I went to her service. As I was about to enter, she said: "O inappropriate one! Have you done this act?" Then she placed a curtain between herself and me.

Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed each of these actions; he offered the complete prayer and also offered the shortened prayer, and during travel he both observed the fast and did not observe it. The narrator of this narration, Talha, is weak.

Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to sometimes perform shortened prayers during travel and sometimes perform the full prayers; he would sometimes break the fast and sometimes keep it. The Sheikh states: Its chain of narration is authentic.

Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would sometimes perform the prayer in full during travel and sometimes shorten it. The narrator of this report, Mughira bin Ziyad, is not reliable.

Amr bin Shu'aib, from his father, from his grandfather, reports: I have seen the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) observing the fast while traveling, and I have seen him not observing the fast while traveling.
