Summary of Sunan an-Nasai Hadith 2398
This short narration says that Abdullah bin Amr reported that the Messenger of Allah spoke to him, and the narrator then continued with the same hadith. The text here does not repeat all the details in the translation, but it points to the same fasting guidance connected to Abdullah bin Amr. Because the wording is brief, the safest explanation is to stay close to what is given: this is another transmitted report of the Prophet’s instruction to Abdullah. In the surrounding fasting reports, the main theme is balanced voluntary fasting and avoiding daily nonstop fasting. This narration matters because it preserves the same teaching through another route, while keeping the focus on the Prophet’s words to Abdullah.
