Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: Ibn Abbas explained the following Quranic verse: O ye who believe! fasting is prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you During the lifetime of the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم, when the people offered night prayer, they were asked to abstain from food and drink and (intercourse with) women, they kept fast till the next night. A man betrayed himself and had intercourse with his wife after he had offered the night prayer, and he did not break his fast. So Allah, the Exalted, intended to make it (fasting) easy for those who survived, thus providing a concession and utility. Allah, the Glorified, said: Allah knoweth what ye used to do secretly among yourselves. By this Allah benefited the people and provided concession and ease to them.

Narrated Abu Saeed al-Khudri: A woman came to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم while we were with him. She said: Messenger of Allah, my husband, Safwan ibn al-Mu'attal, beats me when I pray, and makes me break my fast when I keep a fast, and he does not offer the dawn prayer until the sun rises. He asked Safwan, who was present, about what she had said. He replied: Messenger of Allah, as for her statement he beats me when I pray , she recites two surahs (during prayer) and I have prohibited her (to do so). He (the Prophet) said: If one surah is recited (during prayer), that is sufficient for the people. (Safwan continued: ) As regards her saying he makes me break my fast, she dotes on fasting; I am a young man, I cannot restrain myself. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said on that day: A woman should not fast except with the permission of her husband. (Safwan said: ) As for her statement that I do not pray until the sun rises, we are a people belonging to a class, and that (our profession of supplying water) is already known about us. We do not awake until the sun rises. He said: When you awake, offer your prayer.
