Question:
If a person fasts on Friday alone with the intention of one of the six days of Shawwal, is his action valid?
Answer:
There is a prohibition against fasting on Friday. Isolating Friday for fasting is prohibited, and the hadith on this is authentic, because it is a day of celebration, the weekly festival. It is not to be fasted except if it is made up from Ramadan. If it is made up from Ramadan, there is no harm. As for fasting it voluntarily, no.
