سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَصُومُ صَوْماً قَدْ وَقَّتَهُ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ أَوْ يَصُومُ مِنْ أَشْهُرِ الْحُرُمِ فَيَمُرُّ بِهِ الشَّهْرُ وَ الشَّهْرَانِ لَا يَقْضِيهِ فَقَالَ لَا يَصُومُ فِي السَّفَرِ وَ لَا يَقْضِي شَيْئاً مِنْ صَوْمِ التَّطَوُّعِ إِلَّا الثَّلَاثَةَ الْأَيَّامِ الَّتِي كَانَ يَصُومُهَا مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ وَ لَا يَجْعَلُهَا بِمَنْزِلَةِ الْوَاجِبِ إِلَّا أَنِّي أُحِبُّ لَكَ أَنْ تَدُومَ عَلَى الْعَمَلِ الصَّالِحِ قَالَ وَ صَاحِبُ الْحُرُمِ الَّذِي كَانَ يَصُومُهَا وَ يُجْزِئُهُ أَنْ يَصُومَ مَكَانَ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ مِنْ أَشْهُرِ الْحُرُمِ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Al Hassan Bn Mahboub, from Abdullah Bin Sinan who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about the man who had timed it upon himself, or he was Fasting from Sacred Months. So the month, and the two month pass by him, not fulfilling it. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘He should not be Fasting during the journey, nor would he make up for anything from the optional Fasts except for the three days which he had Fasted from each month, nor make it to be at the status of the Obligatory, except that I<sup>asws</sup> like it for you that you should be habitual upon the righteous deed’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘And the one who had the Fasting for the Sacred Months which he used to Fast, it would suffice him in place of each month from the Sacred Months, (the Fasting of) three days’.
