The virtue of fasting the white days

Among the recommended voluntary fasts in Islam is fasting on the White Days, which are the 13th, 14th, and 15th of each lunar month. The virtue of fasting on these days is emphasized in several prophetic hadiths, highlighting their great reward.

These days are called the “White Days” because the moon is full and bright in the sky throughout the night. They are part of the lunar monthly cycle, occurring in the middle of each Hijri month.
Several hadiths from Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) encourage fasting on these days, including:
Hadith of Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him):
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: “My close friend (the Prophet) advised me to do three things: fast three days of every month, pray two rak’ahs of Duha (forenoon prayer), and perform Witr prayer before sleeping.” (Narrated by al-Bukhari and Muslim).
This hadith indicates the importance of fasting three days each month, and it is preferable for these days to be the White Days.
Hadith of Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-As (may Allah be pleased with him):
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “Fasting three days of every month is like fasting for a lifetime.” (Narrated by al-Bukhari and Muslim).
This hadith explains that whoever fasts three days of each month is as if they have fasted for a lifetime, due to the multiplication of rewards.
Multiplication of Rewards:
Drawing Closer to Allah:
Purification and Refinement of the Soul:
Health Benefits:
Following the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace be upon him):
