Question:
What is the meaning of the statement of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him): “Whoever fasts on the Day of Doubt has disobeyed Abu al-Qasim”?
Answer:
This is not from the speech of the Messenger; it is from the speech of some of the Companions. I think it was 'Amir ibn Yasir. The Day of Doubt is not to be fasted; it is the thirtieth day of Sha'ban if the crescent is not seen due to clouds and darkness that prevented the sighting. So it is not to be fasted as if it were from Ramadan. It is not permissible to fast on the Day of Doubt.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
