Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. Regarding fasting the entire month of Muharram or most of it, has not a hadith been reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he
did not fast a complete month other than Ramadan?لم يصم شهرا كاملا غير شهر رمضان؟


Answer:
He singles out the month of Muharram from it; the prohibition singles out the month of Muharram. Yes.
