Submitted by admin on Mon, 2015-08-10 16:03

Q: Outside Ramadhaan, one frequently fasts but one’s object is really to try and get sugar levels down. Would such fasts be deemed nawaafil fasts or merely regarded as a personal exercise not deserving of any reward?

Keeping qadha fasts with the niyyah of the six fasts of Shawaal as well

Submitted by admin on Wed, 2014-08-20 15:40

Q: Is it permissible to make an intention of Qadha for fasts that were missed in Ramadhan and also for the 6 Sunnah fasts of Shawwal? I heard that to get the reward promised in the Hadith you will have to keep 36 fasts (Ramadhaan plus 6 fasts of Shawwaal). Is this correct?
