EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about the practice of fasting while travelling according to the Prophet Muhammad. It was narrated that Al-'Awwam bin Hawshab said that he asked Mujahid about fasting while travelling and Mujahid replied that the Messenger of Allah used to fast sometimes and not fast sometimes. This indicates that it is permissible for a person who is travelling to choose whether or not they want to fast, depending on their own personal circumstances. It also shows us how important it is for us as Muslims to follow in the footsteps of our beloved prophet, even in small matters such as this one. We should strive to emulate his example in all aspects of our lives, so we can be closer to Allah and gain His pleasure.
