مُسْنَدُ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ خَادِمِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ
Three-Narrator Ahadith 117
Anas ibn Mālik (may Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ arrived in Madīnah and the people of Madīnah had two days on which they used to celebrate and play. He said: “I have come to you and you have two days on which you play. Allah has replaced them for you with two days that are better: the day of ʿĪd al-Fiṭr and the day of ʿĪd al-Naḥr.” Reference: Musnad Aḥmad 117
حَدَّثَنَا سَهْلُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ يَعْنِي الْمِسْمَعِيَّ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، وَيَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدٌ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَدِينَةَ، وَلِأَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ يَوْمَانِ يَلْعَبُونَ فِيهِمَا، فَقَالَ: «قَدِمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَلَكُمْ يَوْمَانِ تَلْعَبُونَ فِيهِمَا، فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ أَبْدَلَكُمْ يَوْمَيْنِ خَيْرًا مِنْهُمَا، يَوْمَ الْفِطْرِ، وَيَوْمَ النَّحْرِ».
