Forbidden Fasting 1) Fasting is not permitted on the doubtful day. 2) The Day of `Id al-Fitr (the day following the end of Ramadan) as it has been previously explained. Abu Said al-Khudri said that the Prophet had forbidden fasting on two days, namely, the day of al-Fitr and the day of al-Nahr the day the pilgrims offer sacrifice). 3) The days of tashriq (the three days following the day of al-Nahr, that is, the 11th, 12th and 13th of the month of Dhul-Hijja. Kab Ibn Malik reported that he and Aws Ibn al-Hadthan were ordered by the Prophet to announce to the people : None but a believer enters paradise... the days of Mina (i.e. during the pilgrimage) are days for eating and drinking. Sad Ibn Abi Waqqas said that the Prophet had ordered him to announce- to the people that there is no fast during the day of Mina. A group of ulama consider fasting during those days to be reprehensible. 4) Friday should not - he a fasting day. The Prophet said : Do not devote Friday night for Qiyam (night-long prayer) or Friday for fasting. 5) The dahr fast (all the year round) is reprehensible. The Prophet said : He who fasts the whole year does not fast. Who fasts the dahr finds himself in hell. A woman shall not perform the voluntary fast without the permission of her husband. The Prophet said No woman shall fast without her husbands permission except in Ramadan .
