I have heard from some that we must also fast on either Saturday or Thursday for the fast to be valid. \n\nIs it also disliked if we are making up for a missed fasting during ramadan? For example, if I was ill and had to break my fast. Can I only fast Friday if this is the most suitable day to make up the missed fast?","answer":"It is disliked/makruh to single out Fridays for fasting. If you want to fast Friday, then you should also fast on Thursday or Saturday as well. This is the position of the Shafi and Hanbali school.\n\nNo, it is not makruh if you are making up missed days.","tags":[{"_id":"668d9fee0b76658b4c232963","tag":"Fasting: Other","count":26}],"createdOn":"2024-07-09T20:40:58.945Z"}
