Musnad Ahmad 824 (Book 5, Hadith 254) #34480
Eating and Drinking During Mina Days

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) instructed people to eat and drink during the days of Mina, and not to fast.

It was narrated from 'Amr bin Sulaim Az-Zuraqi, from his mother, that she said: Whilst we were in Mina, I saw 'Ali bin Abi Talib (رضي الله عنه) on a camel, saying: The Messenger of Allah says: 'These are days of eating and drinking, so no one should fast'. And he followed the people to convey this message
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ الْهَادِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ الزُّرَقِيِّ، عَنْ أُمِّهِ، أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ بِمِنًى إِذَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَلَى جَمَلٍ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ إِنَّ هَذِهِ أَيَّامُ طُعْمٍ وَشُرْبٍ فَلَا يَصُومَنَّ أَحَدٌ فَاتَّبَعَ النَّاسُ‏.‏

QUICK LESSONS:
Eat & Drink during special occasions like Mina Days .

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's instructions regarding eating and drinking during the days of Mina. He instructed people not to fast on these days, but rather to eat and drink as much as they can. This is because these are special days in which Muslims gather together for worship, so it is important that they have enough energy for their activities. Additionally, fasting on these days would be a distraction from their worshipful activities. This hadith teaches us that we should take care of our physical needs in order to better serve Allah through our spiritual practices.
