2. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa’id from his brother al-Hassan, from Zur‘ah from Sama‘ah in a muzmar manner who has said the following
“I asked him (a.s.), about breakfast before dawn in the case of one who wants to fast. He replied, In the month of Ramadan, it is better even with one sip of water. In an optional fast, one may or may not take breakfast before dawn as he likes.’”
2ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ أَخِيهِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ زُرْعَةَ عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ السَّحُورِ لِمَنْ أَرَادَ الصَّوْمَ فَقَالَ أَمَّا فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ فَإِنَّ الْفَضْلَ فِي السَّحُورِ وَلَوْ بِشَرْبَةٍ مِنْ مَاءٍ وَأَمَّا فِي التَّطَوُّعِ فَمَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَتَسَحَّرَ فَلْيَفْعَلْ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ فَلا بَأْسَ.
