Voluntary Fasting - Abdu11ah_au1981 - 06-15-2004
I'm a new Muslim who'd like to do a voluntary fast for 3 days...Can anyone please tell me exactly how I perform voluntary fasting according to Sunnah as I can't find info on fasting outside of Ramadan. Some proof from Qur'an or Hadiths would be great too! Thanks! Was-salamu alaikum

As salamu alaikum sister,
Al Hamdu lillah. Thankyou kindly for directing me towards the articles about fasting, they had exactly the information I required. Praise be to Allah for guiding me to His religion of Islam. I shall put a testimony in the New Muslim section soon detailing my journey to Islam and inshallah it may inspire/help others.
Was salamu alaikum

Voluntary Fasting - Qutuz - 07-03-2004
if you went to sleep without any intention to fast the next day and you waked up and didn't drink or eat until Al Dhuhr prayer you can continue the day as a voulntary fasting day (although you didn't have the intention until before Dhuhr prayer) and that is not valid for ramadan fasting where you should have the intention to fast the night before.

Assalamu alaikum Qutuz,
Out of curiosity is there a hadith or Qur'an verse that can verify this info inshAllah, or a link to that info? Thanks also to lifutushi for the other links.

actually the hadith in Arabic say that when prophet Muhammed ask his wives if there is a food in the house and they answer "no" he say so let me fast today"...narrated by Aisha i think.
