It is narrated from Umm al-Mu'minin Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would come to me while fasting and ask: "Is there anything with you that you can give me to eat?" I would say: "No, we have nothing." Upon hearing this, he (peace and blessings be upon him) would say: "Then I am fasting." Then one day he (peace and blessings be upon him) came to me and I said: "We were given a gift, and we have saved it for you." He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What is it?" I said: "Hays" (i.e., a sweet dish made of dates, ghee, and cheese). He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Today I was fasting." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) ate it.
