742. 'Abdullāh narrated: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would fast during the beginning of every month for three days, and Friday was the least of days that he did not fast.” (Hasan) (He said:) There are narrations on this topic from Ibn ‘Umar, and Abū Hurairah. Abū ‘Eisā said: The Hadīth of ‘Abdullāh is a Hasan Gharīb Hadīth. There are those among the people of knowledge who considered it recommended to fast on Friday, and that it is only disliked to fast Friday when one does not fast a day before it or after it. He said: Shu‘bah reported this Hadīth from ‘Āsim, and he did not report it in Marfū‘ form.

٧٤٢ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ دِينَارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُوسَى ‌وَطَلْقُ بْنُ غَنَّامٍ عَنْ ‌شَيْبَانَ ، عَنْ ‌عَاصِمٍ ، عَنْ ‌زِرٍّ، عَنْ ‌عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ: «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَصُومُ مِنْ غُرَّةِ» كُلِّ شَهْرٍ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ، وَقَلَّمَا كَانَ يُفْطِرُ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ. حَدِيثُ عَبْدِ اللهِ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ. وَقَدِ اسْتَحَبَّ قَوْمٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ صِيَامَ يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ، وَإِنَّمَا يُكْرَهُ أَنْ يَصُومَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ لَا يَصُومُ قَبْلَهُ وَلَا بَعْدَهُ. وَرَوَى شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ وَلَمْ يَرْفَعْهُ.
