Hadith #4

سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مُصَدِّقِ بْنِ صَدَقَةَ عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ مُوسَى اَلسَّابَاطِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَكُونُ عَلَيْهِ أَيَّامٌ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ كَيْفَ يَقْضِيهَا فَقَالَ» إِنْ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ يَوْمَانِ فَلْيُفْطِرْ بَيْنَهُمَا يَوْماً وَ إِنْ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ خَمْسَةٌ فَلْيُفْطِرْ بَيْنَهُمَا أَيَّاماً وَ لَيْسَ لَهُ أَنْ يَصُومَ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ مُتَوَالِيَةٍ وَ إِنْ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ ثَمَانِيَةُ أَيَّامٍ أَوْ عَشَرَةٌ أَفْطَرَ بَيْنَهُمَا يَوْماً«.

Sa’ad ibn Abdillah, from Ahmad ibn al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Faddal, from Amr ibn Said, from Musaddiq ibn Sadaqah, from Ammar ibn Musa al-Sabati, from Abu Abdillah , peace be upon him, who said: I (narrator) asked Imam about ‘a man who has days from the month of Ramadan upon him, how should he make them up?’ Imam said: “If he has two days upon him, then let him break the fast between them for one day. And if he has five upon him, then let him break the fast between them for some days. He does not have the right to fast more than six consecutive days. And if he has eight days or ten upon him, he should break the fast between them for one day.”
