The Masnoon (Sunnat) fasts are all classified in the Nafl category (see page 5 ). The following are the Sunnat fasts for which the Shariah promises great thawab (reward):
(1) The 10th of Muharram - the Day of Ashura. Along with the 10th, either the 9th or the 11th should also be kept.
(2) The 9th of Zil-haj.
(3) The 15th of Sha'ban.
(4) Six days during the month of Shawwal. These six Saum may be kept consecutively (in succession) or spread over the month.
(5) The 13th, 14th and 15th of every Islamic month.
(6) Every Monday and Thursday.
(7) The first nine days of Zil-haj.
