Arabic text
٢١٨٦ - أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ بَقِيَّةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا بَحِيرٌ ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ ، عَنْ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ «أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ عَائِشَةَ عَنِ الصِّيَامِ فَقَالَتْ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَصُومُ شَعْبَانَ كُلَّهُ وَيَتَحَرَّى صِيَامَ الِاثْنَيْنِ وَالْخَمِيسِ».

Commentary
In other narrations, Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ has clearly pointed out the reason for fasting on Mondays and Thursdays; the deeds of the worshipper are presented to Allāh, Most High, on these two days. Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ, therefore, said: “I like that my deeds be taken up when I am fasting.” (See No. 2359)
