سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنْ أَفْضَلِ مَا جَرَتْ بِهِ السُّنَّةُ فِي التَّطَوُّعِ مِنَ الصَّوْمِ فَقَالَ ثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ فِي كُلِّ شَهْرٍ الْخَمِيسُ فِي أَوَّلِ الشَّهْرِ وَ الْأَرْبِعَاءُ فِي وَسَطِ الشَّهْرِ وَ الْخَمِيسُ فِي آخِرِ الشَّهْرِ قَالَ قُلْتُ لَهُ هَذَا جَمِيعُ مَا جَرَتْ بِهِ السُّنَّةُ فِي الصَّوْمِ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Fazzal, from Ibn Bukeyr, from Zurara who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about the most meritorious of what the Sunnah flowed with regarding the voluntary from the Fasts’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Three days during the month – the Thursday in the beginning of the month, and the Wednesday in the middle of the month, and the Thursday in the end of the month’. I said to him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘This is the entirety of what the Sunnah has flowed with regarding the Fast?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Yes’.
