أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ بَقِيَّةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا بَحِيرٌ عَنْ خَالِدٍ عَنْ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ عَائِشَةَ عَنْ الصِّيَامِ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ کَانَ يَصُومُ شَعْبَانَ کُلَّهُ وَيَتَحَرَّی صِيَامَ الِاثْنَيْنِ وَالْخَمِيسِ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 2192
It was narrated that ‘Abdullah bin Shaqiq said: “I said to ‘Aishah: ‘Did the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم offer Duha prayer?’ She said: ‘No, unless he was returning from a journey.’ I said: ‘Did the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم fast an entire month?’ She said: ‘No, I do not remember him fasting any month in full apart from Ramalan, and he did not break his fast for a whole month, rather he would fast some of (each month) until he passed away.” (Sahih)
