2422 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنْ فِطْرٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَامٍ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، قَالَ: " أَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ نَصُومَ مِنَ الشَّهْرِ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ الْبِيضَ: ثَلَاثَ عَشْرَةَ، وَأَرْبَعَ عَشْرَةَ، وَخَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ "

The wisdom to fast on these three days (of every month) could probably be due to the fact that their nights are brightly illuminated throughout by the moon. It is, therefore, consonant with it, that their days should also be illuminated by the light of fasting.
