English translation

748. ‘Ubaidullāh (bin Muslim) Al-Qurashī narrated from his father who said: “I asked – or; the Prophet ﷺ was asked – about fasting daily. So he said: ‘Your family has a right over you.’ Then he said: ‘Fast Ramaḍān and that which is after it, and, every Wednesday and Thursday. If you do that, then you will have fasted daily, as well as broken (the fast).’” (Da‘if) There is something on this topic from ‘Āishah. Abū ‘Eisā said: The Hadīth of Muslim Al-Qurashī is a Gharīb Hadīth. Some of them narrated it from Ḥarūn bin Salmān, from Muslim bin ‘Ubaidullāh, from his father.

٧٤٨ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْجُرَيْرِيُّ ‌وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَدُّوَيْهِ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُوسَى، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ‌هَارُونُ بْنُ سَلْمَانَ، عَنْ ‌عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ الْقُرَشِيِّ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِيهِ قَالَ: «سَأَلْتُ أَوْ سُئِلَ» رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ صِيَامِ الدَّهْرِ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ لِأَهْلِكَ عَلَيْكَ حَقًّا، صُمْ رَمَضَانَ وَالَّذِي يَلِيهِ، وَكُلَّ أَرْبِعَاءَ وَخَمِيسٍ، فَإِذَا أَنْتَ قَدْ صُمْتَ الدَّهْرَ وَأَفْطَرْتَ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ. حَدِيثُ مُسْلِمٍ الْقُرَشِيِّ حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ. وَرَوَى بَعْضُهُمْ عَنْ هَارُونَ بْنِ سَلْمَانَ عَنْ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ.

Commentary

The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ did not follow a strict regular habit for voluntary fasts, so the various routines of the Prophet are reported regarding this issue. Imām At-Tirmidhī would mention the details of the voluntary fasts in the following chapters. With regards to fasting perpetually the whole year, a chapter is coming.
