It is narrated from Ata bin Yasar that a man kissed his wife while he was fasting in Ramadan, so he became very distressed and sent his wife to Umm al-Mu'minin Sayyida Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) to ask her about the matter. So the woman went to Sayyida Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) and explained it to her. Sayyida Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) kisses while fasting. Then she went back to her husband and informed him, and her husband became even more distressed and said: We are not like the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him); Allah makes lawful for His Messenger whatever He wills. Then his wife came again to Sayyida Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) and saw that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was also present there. So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What is the matter with this woman?" So Sayyida Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) explained it to him. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Why did you not say to him that I also do this (i.e., kiss while fasting)?" Sayyida Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: I did say that, but she went to her husband and informed him, so he became even more distressed and said: We are not like the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him); Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, makes lawful for His Messenger whatever He wills. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) became angry and said: "By Allah! I am the most fearful of Allah among you and the most knowledgeable of His limits among you."
