حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلانَ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ يَحْيَى، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ بِنْتِ طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، قَالَتْ‏:‏ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَأْتِينِي فَيَقُولُ‏:‏ أَعِنْدَكِ غَدَاءٌ‏؟‏ فَأَقُولُ‏:‏ لا قَالَتْ‏:‏ فَيَقُولُ‏:‏ إِنِّي صَائِمٌ قَالَتْ‏:‏ فَأَتَانِي يَوْمًا، فَقُلْتُ‏:‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّهُ أُهْدِيَتْ لَنَا هَدِيَّةٌ، قَالَ‏:‏ وَمَا هِيَ‏؟‏ قُلْتُ‏:‏ حَيْسٌ، قَالَ‏:‏ أَمَا إِنِّي أَصْبَحْتُ صَائِمًا، قَالَتْ‏:‏ ثُمَّ أَكَلَ‏.‏
Ummul Mu'mineen Hazrat Aishah radiyallahu anha says, Rasoolullah sallallahu alaihe wasallam used to come to me and ask if there was any food available. When I would say, "No," he would say, "I have intended to fast." Once when Rasoolullah sallallahu alaihe wasallam came and enquired, I replied, "We have received a present.' Rasoolullah sallallahu alaihe wasallam asked, "What is it?' I replied, "Malidah (a type of cake made of dates, ghee, cheese or flour).' He said, "I had made an intention of fasting already.' He then ate some from it.
