Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Aqrab (may Allah be pleased with him) that I asked the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) about fasting, so the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Keep one fast in every month." I said, "I have the strength for more than that." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "What is this that you have the strength for more than that, the strength for more than that? Keep two fasts in every month." I said, "O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)! Please increase it a little more." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "What is this that I should increase, increase? Just keep three fasts in every month."
