The Shield of Fasting

SUMMARY: Fasting is a shield that should not be damaged.

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا حِبَّانُ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ مِسْعَرٍ، عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي مَالِكٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَصْحَابُنَا، عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ، قَالَ الصِّيَامُ جُنَّةٌ مَا لَمْ يَخْرِقْهَا
