FASTING ON THE DAYS OF THE WHITE NIGHTS

Hadrat Qatada bin Milhan (Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated that the Prophet used to enjoin us to fast on the days of the white (nights) (i.e., the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth night of the month, the nights when there is most moonlight) saying that fasting on these three days every month is equivalent (in merit and reward) to perpetual fast.” [Mishkat, Nisai]
