The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia explained that the fasting of the six of Shawwal is one of the blessed prophetic Sunnahs, and a great opportunity to obtain the reward and double the good deeds.
- 5 million pilgrims in the first ten days of Ramadan - the seventh day
- Somalia: Two prominent leaders of the "Youth" militia were killed in an air strike in the "Lower Shabili" region - the seventh day
The Ministry cited the hadith of the Prophet: “Whoever fasts Ramadan and then follows him six from Shawwal, he was like fasting the age” (Narrated by Muslim: 1164), noting that these days give a Muslim a great kind to God, where he completes the reward for fasting the Sunnah.
- 32 martyrs in the Gaza Strip since the dawn of Saturday - the seventh day
- About 750 Al -Dahd internally returns to their original citizen in Syria since November 2024 - the seventh day
A Muslim can fast these six days in a continuous or sporadic way during the month of Shawwal, which provides flexibility in its performance according to their circumstances.
