Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is it true that whoever fasts three days of every month is as if he fasted the entire month?

The Shaykh : Yes, it is true, for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Observing Saum (fasting) on three days of every month is equivalent to a full month's fasting. صيام ثلاثة أيام من كل شهر صوم الدهر كله
Riyad as-Salihin 1260


The questioner : May Allah reward you, O honorable Shaykh, and may He bless you.
