Undesirability (unlawfulness) of Fast on a Journey

7ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ سَمَاعَةَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) يَقُولُ لَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلاً مَاتَ صَائِماً فِي السَّفَرِ مَا صَلَّيْتُ عَلَيْهِ.
7. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Salmah ibn al-Khattab from Sulayman ibn Sama‘ah, from Ali ibn ‘Isma‘il from Muhammad ibn Hakim who has said the following: “I once heard abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, say, ‘If a man while on a journey and fasting dies, I will not perform Salat (prayer) (of dead people) for him.’”
