Baarqab Qooqay Posted August 24, 2012 A salaamu caleykum.. Are you good at negotiating when you buy or sell things, would you like to have 6 days which is like a year of good things, or 10 times doubling your good deeds, then we have good news for you Fasting Six Days of Shawwal After Ramadan, is Like Fasting The Entire Year Ayyub (Allah be pleased with him) relates that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace be upon him, his family, and companions) said, “Whoever fasts Ramadan and follows it with six days from Shawwal it is as if they fasted the entire year.” [Muslim, Abu Dawud, Tirmidhi, and Ibn Majah; Ahmad transmitted it from Jabir, Muntaqa] Thawban (Allah be pleased with him) relates that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace be upon him, his family, and companions) said, “Whoever fasts Ramadan, and then six days after Eid, it is [like fasting] an entire year. Whoever does a good deed shall have ten times its reward.* may allah guide us all to the right path... aammin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bluelicious Posted August 25, 2012 You are also allowed to spread your 6 days of fasting over the month of Shawwal rather then fasting for 6 consecutive days after eid. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aaliyyah Posted August 25, 2012 true that Blue. But, I also heard you have to first fast the days you missed in Ramadan before the 6 days of Shawal. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes if you wanna get the reward of fasting for a year you have to make up the fasts you missed first to make your Ramadan complete before you move on to do the 6 days of Shawwal. You can read it clearly in the hadith above so if you are a woman it's gonna add up. That is bad news for the ones who have to make up 7 days. That would mean they have to fast for another 13 days. Holy moly Lord have mercy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
