Sunan an-Nasai 2330 (Book 22, Hadith 241) #16941
Breaking Fast Despite Fasting

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was offered food and he decided to break his fast even though he had started the day fasting.

It was narrated that 'Aishah the mother of the Believers, said: "The Messenger of Allah came one day and said: 'Do you have any food?' I said: 'No'. He came in to me on another occasion, and I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, we have been given some Hais'. He said: "Then I will break my fast today, although I had started my day fasting"'.
أَخْبَرَنِي صَفْوَانُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي رَجُلٌ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ بِنْتِ طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، قَالَتْ جَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ يَوْمًا فَقَالَ ‏"‏ هَلْ عِنْدَكُمْ مِنْ طَعَامٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قُلْتُ لاَ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ إِذًا أَصُومَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَتْ وَدَخَلَ عَلَىَّ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَدْ أُهْدِيَ لَنَا حَيْسٌ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ إِذًا أُفْطِرَ الْيَوْمَ وَقَدْ فَرَضْتُ الصَّوْمَ

QUICK LESSONS:
Be generous and kind when someone offers you something.

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) showed us that it is okay to break our fast if we are offered food, even if we have already started fasting for that day. He was offered some Hais, which is a type of food, and he decided to break his fast despite having already started it. This teaches us that it is important to be generous and kind when someone offers us something, even if it means breaking our own plans or commitments. We should also be thankful for what we are given and not take anything for granted.
