Righteous deeds in the month of Sha'ban and fasting in it

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks, Shaykh, and says: In Sha'ban, is there any reported righteous deed specific to it? And is it permissible to fast the entire month?

Answer:
The month of Sha'ban does not have a special virtue specific to it. However, if one fasts most of it without completing the whole month, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did that; he used to fast a lot in the month of Sha'ban, but he did not complete it. Yes.
