Question:
I have been accustomed to fasting on Thursdays throughout the year, but I do not fast on Mondays with it. Is my fasting contrary to the Messenger by not fasting on Mondays and Thursdays together?
Answer:
This would be an incomplete act, unless the Muslim fasts on Mondays and Thursdays voluntarily every week. If he fasts on Mondays only and leaves out Thursdays, or the reverse—fasts on Thursdays and leaves out Mondays—then his act is incomplete, but his fasting is valid and will be counted for him, if Allah wills. However, it is incomplete. May Allah reward you with good.
