Question:
In her second question, she says: What is the ruling on my fasting on Mondays and Thursdays, given that I want to be among those who fast voluntarily?
Answer:
Fasting on Mondays and Thursdays is a sunnah (recommended practice), a confirmed sunnah, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to fast on Mondays and Thursdays and said that they are two days on which deeds are presented to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), and he loved for his deeds to be presented while he was fasting. Therefore, it is recommended to fast on Monday and Thursday. Yes.
