The Shaykh:
Fasting is one type of worship, and nothing prevents you from performing other acts of worship alongside it as far as you are able, because seeking good and seeking reward is required of a person, and it is not limited to one type when he is capable of others; rather, he should diversify his deeds and do this and that.
