Musnad Ahmad 567 (Book 5, Hadith 6) #34232
Eating and Drinking During Mina Days

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

It was narrated from 'Amr bin Sulaim that his mother said: Whilst we were in Mina, I saw 'Ali bin Abi Talib (رضي الله عنه) say: The Messenger of Allah said: "These days are for eating and drinking, so no one should fast these days". And he went around to the people on his camel, shouting that,
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ أَبِي الْحُسَامِ، مَدَنِيٌّ مَوْلًى لِآلِ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ، عَنْ أُمِّهِ، قَالَتْ بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ بِمِنًى إِذَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ يَقُولُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ إِنَّ هَذِهِ أَيَّامُ أَكْلٍ وَشُرْبٍ فَلَا يَصُومُهَا أَحَدٌ وَاتَّبَعَ النَّاسَ عَلَى جَمَلِهِ يَصْرُخُ بِذَلِكَ‏.‏
