حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَظِيمِ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا الضَّحَّاکُ بْنُ مَخْلَدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ رِفَاعَةَ عَنْ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ کَانَ يَصُومُ الِاثْنَيْنِ وَالْخَمِيسَ فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّکَ تَصُومُ الِاثْنَيْنِ وَالْخَمِيسَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ يَوْمَ الِاثْنَيْنِ وَالْخَمِيسَ يَغْفِرُ اللَّهُ فِيهِمَا لِکُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ إِلَّا مُهْتَجِرَيْنِ يَقُولُ دَعْهُمَا حَتَّی يَصْطَلِحَا
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 1740
It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet P.B.U.H used to fast on Mondays and Thursdays. It was said: "0 Messenger of Allah P.B.U.H, why do you fast on Mondays and Thursdays?" He said: "On Mondays and Thursdays Allah forgives every Muslim except two who have forsaken one another. He says: 'Leave these two until they reconcile.''' (Hasan)
