giving birth, which coincided with the time of Ramadaan. I have made
them up, praise beto Allaah, with the exception of the last seven
days.
I fasted three of them in the second half of Sha'baan, and I want to
do the rest before Ramadaan begins.
But I read on your site that it is not permissible to fast in the
second halfof Sha'baan, except for aperson who habitually fasts.
Please advise me, may Allaah reward you. Iwant to know whether I
should fast the rest of these days that I owe, or not. If the answer
is no, then what is the ruling on the three days that I have already
fasted – do I have to make them up again or not?.
Praise be to Allaah.
It was proven that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon
him) said: "When Sha'baan is halfway through, do not fast." Narrated
by Abu Dawood (3237); Ibn Hibaan (1651); classed assaheeh by
al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Tirmidhi.
There are some exceptions from this prohibition, as follows:
1 –One who has a habit of fasting, such as a man who habitually fasts
on Mondays and Thursdays, which he may do even after halfway through
Sha'baan. The evidence for that is the words of the Prophet (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him), "Do not anticipate Ramadaan by
fasting one or two days before it, except a man who fasts regularly,
whoshould observe his usual fast." Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 1914;
Muslim, 1082.
2 – A person who startedfasting before halfway through Sha'baan, and
connects what comes after the halfway point to what came before. This
is not included in the prohibition either. The evidence for that is
the words of 'Aa'ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) who said:
"TheMessenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)
used to fast all of Sha'baan and fast all of Sha'baan except a
little."Narrated by al-Bukhaari,1970; Muslim, 1165. This version
narrated by Muslim.
Al-Nawawi said: "He used to fast all of Sha'baan and fast all of
Sha'baan except a little."The second phrase is an explanation of the
first, pointing out that by "all"what is meant is "most".
This hadeeth indicates that it is permissible to fast after halfway
through Sha'baan, but only for one who joins that to what came before
the halfway point.
3 – An exception from this prohibition is also made for one who is
making up missed Ramadaan fasts.
Al-Nawawi (may Allaah have mercy on him) said in al-Majmoo' (6/399):
Our companions said: it is not correct to fast on the "day of doubt"
just before Ramadaan, and there is no difference of scholarly opinion
on thispoint … But if a person fasts it to make up a missed day or to
fulfil a vow, or as an expiation, that is acceptable, because if it is
permissible to observe a voluntary fast on that day, it is more likely
to be permissible to observe an obligatory fast… and if a person hasto
make up a day from Ramadaan, then he has to fast it, because the time
left for him to makeit up has become very short.
The "day of doubt" is thethirtieth of Sha'baan if ithas not been
possible to sight the moon of the thirtieth because of cloud, fog,
etc. It is calledthe "day of doubt" because there is some doubt
concerning it – is it the last day of Sha'baan or the first day of
Ramadaan?
In conclusion:
There is nothing wrong with making up a missedRamadaan fast in the
lasthalf of Sha'baan. This is not included in the prohibition of the
Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) on fasting after
halfway through Sha'baan.
So your fasting of those three days is valid, and you have to fast the
remaining days before Ramadaan begins.
And Allaah knows best.
