حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ عَنْ يَزِيدَ الرِّشْکِ عَنْ مُعَاذَةَ قَالَتْ قُلْتُ لِعَائِشَةَ أَکَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَصُومُ مِنْ کُلِّ شَهْرٍ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ قُلْتُ مِنْ أَيِّ شَهْرٍ کَانَ يَصُومُ قَالَتْ مَا کَانَ يُبَالِي مِنْ أَيِّ أَيَّامِ الشَّهْرِ کَانَ يَصُومُ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 2453
Muadhah (al-Adawiyyah) said: I asked Aishah: Would the Messenger of Allah ﷺ fast three days every month ? She replied: Yes. I asked: Which days in the month he used to fast ? She replied: He did not care which days of the month he fasted.
