The questioner:
And the issue of the house, the issue of timing, the issue of timing, the issue of the fasting of the Prophet (peace be upon him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), regarding the fasting on Mondays and Thursdays, and it ended with the days of the house, and others in our Shari'ah, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). And this hadith is that the closest [interpretation] of the fasting of Dawud (peace be upon him) is that it is upon him in the proportion of drink that he complains of. And this means that it is forbidden upon the Prophet (may Allah's prayer and peace be upon him).
The Shaykh:
This varies according to the people; the one who has strength and wants to fast, he fasts the fast of Dawud, the one who has strength and wants to fast, he fasts the fast of Dawud, he fasts one day and leaves one day, as for the one who does not have strength, he fasts Mondays and Thursdays and three days of every month, and this is sufficient, praise be to Allah. Yes.
