2374. It was narrated from Hunaidah bin Khâlid that his wife said: "One of the wives of the Prophet ﷺ said: 'The Prophet ﷺ used to fast on the day of 'Ashûrâ', nine days of Dhûl-Hijjah and three days each month: The first Monday of the month, and two Thursdays.'" (Sahîh)
2372 - أَخْبَرَنِي زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ الْحُرِّ بْنِ صَيَّاحٍ، عَنْ هُنَيْدَةَ بْنِ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ امْرَأَتِهِ، قَالَتْ: حَدَّثَتْنِي بَعْضُ نِسَاءِ النَّبِيِّ، صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، «أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَصُومُ يَوْمَ عَاشُورَاءَ، وَتِسْعًا مِنْ ذِي الْحِجَّةِ، وَثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ مِنَ الشَّهْرِ أَوَّلَ اثْنَيْنِ مِنَ الشَّهْرِ وَخَمِيسَيْنِ»

In the foregoing twenty-eight reports, various modalities or states of the optional fasts of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ have been described. It should be kept clearly in mind that there is no conflict in them at all. The crucial point is that at times, he would fast in a particular manner, and at other times he would fast in another fashion. And this is exactly the most appropriate thing.
