THE VIRTUES OF FASTING THE SIX FASTS OF SHAWWAL
The Six fasts of Shawwal are observed during the month of Shawwal which is the month immediately after Ramadan. One can begin fasting these 6 fasts one day after Eid Ul Fitr as Eid ul Fitr is only for one day and fasting on Eid day is forbidden.
It is mustahabb (Preferrable) to keep these fasts wherein GREAT rewards can be earned!
By adding the six days of fasting during Shawwal to the 30 days of the fasting of Ramadan, will earn a reward of a FULL YEAR'S FASTING , Insha Allah.
It is not required to fast six days continuously without any interruption. One can fast according to convenience any time during the month.
