Hadith 34401
Yahya related to me from Malik from Sumayy, the mawla of Abu
Bakr, from Abu Bakr ibn Abd ar-Rahman that A'isha and Umm Salama, the
wives of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,
"The Messengerof Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, used
to get up in the morning junub from intercourse, not a dream, and
would then fast."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Sumayy, the mawla of Abu Bakr
ibn Abd ar-Rahman ibn al-Harith ibn Hisham that he heard Abu Bakr ibn
Abd ar-Rahman ibn al-Harith ibn Hisham say, "My father and I were with
Marwan ibn al Hakam at the time when he was amir of Madina, and
someone mentioned to him that Abu Hurayra used to say, 'If someone
begins the morning junub, he has broken the fast for that day.'
Marwan said, 'I swear to you, Abdar-Rahman, you must go to the two umm
al muminin, A'isha and Umm Salama, and ask them about it.'
''Abd ar-Rahman went to visit A'isha and I accompanied him. He greeted
her and then said, 'Umm al-muminin, we were with Marwan ibn al Hakam
and someone mentioned to him that Abu Hurayra used to say that if some
one had begun the morning junub, he had broken the fast for that day.'
A'isha said, 'It is not as Abu Hurayra says Abd ar-Rahman. Do you
dislike what the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, used to do?', and Abd ar-Rahman said, 'No, by Allah.' A'isha
said, 'I bear witness that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, used to get up in the morning junub from
intercourse, not a dream, and would then fast for that day.' "
He continued, "Then we went and visited Umm Salama, and Abd ar-
Rahman asked her about the same matter and she said the same as A'isha
had said. Then we went off until we came to Marwan ibn al-Hakam Abd
ar-Rahman told him what they had both said and Marwan said, 'I swear
to you, Abu Muhammad, you must use the mount which is at the door, and
go to Abu Hurayra, who is on his land at al Aqiq, and tell him this.'
So Abd ar-Rahman rode off, and I went with him, until we came to Abu
Hurayra. Abd ar-Rahman talked with him for a while, and then mentioned
the matter to him, and Abu Hurayra said, 'I don't know anything about
it. I was just told that by someone.'" Muwatta Malik Book 18, Hadith 12

Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam from Ata ibn
Yasar that a certain man kissed his wife while he was fasting in
Ramadan. This made him very anxious, and so he sent his wife to the
Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, to ask him about
that for him. She went in and saw Umm Salama, the wife of the Prophet,
may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and mentioned the matter to
her, and Umm Salama told her that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, used to kiss while he was fasting. So
she went back and told her husband that, but it only made him find
fault all the more and he said, "We are not like the Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. Allah makes
permissible for the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, whatever He wishes."
His wife then went back to
Umm Salama and found the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, with her. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, said, "What's the matter with this woman?", and
Umm Salama told him. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, said, "Didn't you tell her that I do that myself?"
and she said, "I told her, and she went to her husband and told him,
but it only made him find fault all the more and say, 'We are not like
the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. Allah
makes permissible for His Messenger, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, whatever He wishes.' " The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, got angry and said, "By Allah, I am the one
with the most taqwa of Allah of you all, and of you all the one who
best knows His limits." Muwatta Malik Book 18, Hadith 14
