Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, how can one combine the virtue of fasting like our master Dawud (peace be upon him) with fasting on Mondays and Thursdays and fasting on the white days?
Answer:
Yes, if he fasts one day and breaks the fast the next day, that is sufficient. That is sufficient, because he does not have a long period of time; he ends up fasting half the time. Half the time: he fasts one day and breaks the fast the next day. Half the time he fasts includes Mondays and Thursdays and the white days; they fall within this half that he fasts. Yes.
