Reminder: Recommendation to do optional fasting in Shabaan

Assalaamu alaikum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuh dear brothers and sisters,

We have entered the Islamic month of Sha’baan, the month preceding Ramadan. This message is a reminder to perform optional fasting in this month, as it has come in the authentic Sunnah:

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ لَمْ يَكُنْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لِشَهْرٍ أَكْثَرَ صِيَامًا مِنْهُ لِشَعْبَانَ كَانَ يَصُومُهُ أَوْ عَامَّتَهُ.

It was narrated that ‘Aishah, may Allaah be pleased with her, said:
“The Messenger of Allah did not fast any month more than Sha’baan; he used to fast (all of) it, or most of it.” (Reference: Saheeh An-Nasaa’ee)

We ask Allaah to accept our good deeds.

Baarakallaahu feekum
