ḤADĪTH OF THE DAY
Sunan at-Tirmithiy كتاب الصوم باب ما جاء إذا أقبل الليل وأدبر النهار فقد أفطر الصائم
حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْهَمْدَانِىُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَةُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ عُمَرَ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذَا أَقْبَلَ اللَّيْلُ وَأَدْبَرَ النَّهَارُ وَغَابَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَقَدْ أَفْطَرْتَ. قَالَ وَفِى الْبَابِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِى أَوْفَى وَأَبِى سَعِيدٍ. قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ عُمَرَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.
Umar Ibnul-Khattāb said, "The Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, said, 'As the night looms and the day comes to an end, and as the sun sets (1), then your fasting is over.'" Footnote (1): i.e. when it disappears completely. This means that the approach of the night and the departure of the day must be caused by the setting of the sun, and not by any other temporary cause which blocks out sunlight.
