The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: I go from Riyadh to al-Sharqiyah every Thursday. Is it better for me to fast on Mondays and Thursdays, given that fasting is not difficult for me while traveling?
The Shaykh:
With scholars, ah?
The questioner:
That fasting is not difficult for me while traveling.
The Shaykh:
There is no harm in it. Voluntary fasting while traveling is permissible. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to fast voluntarily while traveling. The issue is with obligatory fasting. Yes.
