The ruling on fasting Friday alone for one who intended to fast the white days

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A man says: I intended to fast the white days, so I fasted on Friday, the thirteenth. When the weekend arrived on Saturday, I broke my fast. Do I commit a sin because I fasted Friday alone? And is it permissible for me to break my fast?

Answer:
He did not intend to fast it alone. He fasted with the intention of fasting three days. When Saturday, the day off, came, he broke his fast. There is no doubt that if he had fulfilled his intention and fasted on Saturday, that would have been better for him.
