Sahl b. Sa'd said that when this verse was revealed: Eat and drink till the white streak is distinct from the dark streak, a person would take hold of a white thread and a black thread and keep on eating till he could find them distinct (in the light of the dawn). It was then that Allah, the Majestic and Great, reveiled (the words) min al-fajr (from the dawn), and then it became clear (that the word khait refers to the streak of light in the dawn).
حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْقَوَارِيرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا فُضَيْلُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو حَازِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سَهْلُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، قَالَ: لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ: {وَكُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا حَتَّى يَتَبَيَّنَ لَكُمُ الْخَيْطُ الْأَبْيَضُ مِنَ الْخَيْطِ الْأَسْوَدِ} [البقرة: 187] قَالَ: كَانَ الرَّجُلُ يَأْخُذُ خَيْطًا أَبْيَضَ وَخَيْطًا أَسْوَدَ، فَيَأْكُلُ حَتَّى يَسْتَبِينَهُمَا، حَتَّى أَنْزَلَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: {مِنَ الْفَجْرِ} [البقرة: 187] فَبَيَّنَ ذَلِكَ
  فضیل بن سلیمان ، ابو حازم ، حضرت سہل بن سعد رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ بیان کرتے ہیں ۔ جب یہ آیتوَكُلُوا وَاشْرَ‌بُوا حَتَّىٰ يَتَبَيَّنَ لَكُمُ الْخَيْطُ الْأَبْيَضُ مِنَ الْخَيْطِ الْأَسْوَدِ نازل ہوئی تو بعض آدمی سفید دھاگہ اور سیاہ دھاگہ لے لیتے اور جب تک ان میں واضح امتیاز نظر نہ آتاتو کھاتے رہتے یہاں تک اللہ تعالیٰ نے لفظ " مِنَ الْفَجْرِ‌ " نازل فرمایا اور سفید دھاگے کی وضاحت ہوگئی ۔

sahih-muslim-2535

Sahl b. Sa'd (Allah be pleased with him) said: When this verse was revealed. Eat and drink till the white streak becomes distinct from the dark streak for you, the person who decided to observe fast tied on one of his feet a black thread and on the other a white thread. And he went on eating and drinking till he could distinguish (between their colour) on seeing them. It was after this that Allah reveal- ed (the words): min al-fajr. And they (the Muslims) came to know that (the word khait) refers to the night and day.
