Q
Ramadan is just around the corner and there are a great number of us that may have missed fasts from the previous Ramadan due to some legitimate reason. Is it permissible to make up fasts on Fridays without fasting the day before or after?
Answer
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
All praise and thanks are due to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon His Messenger.
In this fatwa:
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) forbade us from fasting on Fridays alone even if it is a voluntary fast. If you are making up fasts from Ramadan, and Friday is the only day that you can fast because of school, work or other reasons, then it is permissible to fast on Friday alone.
