Sunan Abi Dawud, 2316

Rapporté par Ibn ‘Abbas رضي الله عنه : « En expliquant le verset : “Pour ceux qui peuvent le faire avec difficulté, il y a une compensation : nourrir un pauvre”, il a dit : “Si l’un d’eux voulait payer la compensation en nourrissant un pauvre, il pouvait le faire. Ainsi, son jeûne était complet. Allah, le Très-Haut, a dit : ‘Mais celui qui donne plus de son propre gré, c’est mieux pour lui.’ Et encore : ‘Que celui d’entre vous qui est présent pendant ce mois le jeûne.’ Mais si quelqu’un est malade ou en voyage, il devra rattraper les jours manqués plus tard.” »

Ibn ‘Abbas explain the Qur’anic verse “For those who can do it(with hardship) is a ransom, the feeding of one, that is indigent” said “If one of them wished to pay ransom by providing food to an indigent person he could pay ransom.. Thus, his fast was complete. Allaah, the Exalted pronounced “But he that will give more of his own free will, it is better for him”. Again he pronounced “So every one of you who is present (at his home) during that month should spend it in fasting.” But, if anyone is ill or on a journey the prescribed period (should be made up) by days later
