Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on fasting Friday alone with the intention of the six days of Shawwal?
Answer:
If he is fasting the six days of Shawwal, and Friday is included among them, there is nothing wrong with it. What is prohibited is fasting Friday alone, without fasting it with the day before or the day after. This is because Friday is a day of celebration; it is the weekly festival. It is prohibited, according to the authentic reports, to fast on Friday alone. It is not permissible to single out Friday for fasting, but it is permissible to fast it along with another day. Yes.
