rak'ats of Duha and to do the witr before sleeping."
[Agreed upon]

1259. Abu'd-Darda' said, "My beloved, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, commanded me to do three things which I will not forego as long as I
live: to fast three days of every month, to pray Duha, and not to sleep
until after praying the witr." [Muslim]

Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Fasting three days every
month is equivalent to fasting continuously." [Agreed upon]

1261. Mu'adha al-'Adawiyya asked 'A'isha , "Did the Messenger of Allah fast
three days of every month?" She said, "Yes." "I said, 'What part of the month
did he fast?' She said, 'He did not care what part of the month he fasted.'"
[Muslim]

him peace, did not fail to fast the white days either when at home or on a
