The ruling on fasting on Saturday alone
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the correct or stronger position regarding fasting on Saturday alone as a voluntary act?
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with fasting on Saturday, because no evidence has come that forbids it, and no authentic evidence has come, but rather it has come, yet it is not authentic, so nothing has come that forbids this. The school of thought says it is disliked to single out Saturday, but the correct view is that there is no evidence for the dislike.
