Siyar Aʿlām al-NubalāʾShams al‑Din al‑Dhahabi

al-Hārith relates:

The Prophet ﷺ once entered upon her on a Friday while she was fasting and asked, “Did you fast yesterday?” She replied, “No.” He then asked, “Do you intend to fast tomorrow?” She answered, “No.” He said, “Then break your fast.” (1)

Shuʿbah transmitted this report; it contains a minor, non-prejudicial flaw. It was also narrated by Saʿīd, from Qatādah, from Ibn al-Musayyib, from ʿAbd Allah ibn ʿAmr (2).

Shuʿbah—and a number of others—likewise narrate from Muḥammad ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān, the client of the household of Ṭalḥah: I heard Kurayb relate from Ibn ʿAbbās, from Juwayriyah, who said:

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to me early one morning while I was engaged in glorifying Allah. He then left to attend to some needs and returned close to midday. ‘Are you still sitting in the same place?’ he asked. I replied, ‘Yes.’ He said, ‘Shall I teach you words which, if weighed against—or set beside—everything you have been reciting, would equal them in reward?’ Then he instructed:

Subḥān Allah ʿadada khalqihi (Glory be to Allah, to the number of His creatures) — three times;
Subḥān Allah zinata ʿarshihi (Glory be to Allah, to the weight of His Throne) — three times;
Subḥān Allah riḍā nafsihi (Glory be to Allah, as much as pleases Him) — three times; and
Subḥān Allah midāda kalimātihi (Glory be to Allah, equal to the ink His words are written with) — three times. (3)”

Yūnus transmits from Ibn Isḥāq, who said: Muḥammad ibn Jaʿfar ibn al-Zubayr narrated to us, from

(1) Reported by al-Bukhari, 4/203, Book of Fasting, chapter: “Fasting on Friday”; by Abu Dawud, no. 2422, Book of Fasting; by Ahmad, 6/430; and by Ibn Saʿd, 8/119. It also has a corroborating narration from Junadah b. Abi Umayyah preserved by al-Nasaʾi. Its chain is sound. (2) Reported by Ibn Hibban in his Sahih, no. 957. Ibn Hajar states in Fath al-Bari that both Shuʿbah and Hammam transmit the same chain followed by al-Bukhari, whereas Saʿid b. Abi ʿAroubah differs and relates it from Qatadah—­from Saʿid b. al-Musayyab—­from ʿAbd Allah b. ʿAmr b. al-ʿAs, describing the Prophet ﷺ entering upon Juwayriyyah; this version is found in al-Nasaʾi and judged authentic by Ibn Hibban. The route of Shuʿbah is preferred, since it is supported by Hammam, Hammad b. Salamah, and likewise Hammad b. al-Jaʿd. (3) Chain sound. Reported by Muslim, Sahih, no. 2726, Book of Remembrance and Supplication, chapter: “Glorification at the beginning of the day and upon going to sleep”; also by Ibn Saʿd, 1/119; and by Ahmad, 6/324, 327, 429, 430.
