Sunan an-Nasai 2294 (Book 22, Hadith 205) #16905
Fasting While Travelling

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) gave permission to fast while travelling, but also allowed the option of not fasting.

It was narrated from Hamza bin 'Amr Al-Aslami that: he asked the Messenger of Allah about fasting while traveling. He said: "If," then he said something to the effect that: "If you want, then fast, and if you want, then do not fast.
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَزْهَرُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ حَمْزَةَ بْنِ عَمْرٍو الأَسْلَمِيِّ، أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ عَنِ الصَّوْمِ فِي السَّفَرِ قَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنْ - ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ كَلِمَةً مَعْنَاهَا إِنْ - شِئْتَ صُمْتَ وَإِنْ شِئْتَ أَفْطَرْتَ
