It was narrated from ‘Abdul-Malik bin Minhal, from his father that: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) used to enjoin fasting the bright days – the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth (when the moon is full). He said:“It is like fasting for a lifetime.”Another chain from 'Abdul-Malik bin Qatadah bin Malhan Al-Qaisi, from his father, from the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) with similar wording. Ibn Majah said: Shu'bah erred (in the name of one of the narrators)and Hammam was correct.
