Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The listener: Hazeem al-Juhayran sent a question asking: Which is better, fasting on Mondays and Thursdays of every month, or fasting on three days? And does fasting on Mondays and Thursdays compensate for the three days?
Answer:
Yes, if he fasts on Mondays and Thursdays, that is better; because this is more good, and they take the place of three days of every month, a fortiori. And if he fasts three days, that is sufficient. So, praise be to Allah, it is all good, it is all voluntary, but Mondays and Thursdays have a greater reward. Yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
