Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: I fast on Mondays and Thursdays and intend to include three days of every month in that, so is this valid, or must I separate them with a specific fast?
Answer:
No, no. Three days are not the same as Mondays and Thursdays of every week. Three days of the month are not part of the week. Everything has its place.
