In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
Narrated Abu-Ayyoob: ‘The Prophet (May Allah exalt his mention and protect him from imperfection) said: “He that observes fasting in Ramadhan then he follows it with six days of Shawwal, this is equal to the fasting of the whole life.” (At-Termizi)
*Note: This fasting is not obligatory. The scholars say that it is permissible to observe fasting that month either consecutively or separately.
