"صُمْ يَوْمًا مِنْ كل شَهْرٍ وَلَكَ أَجْرُ مَا بَقىَ، صُمْ يَوْمَيْنِ مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ وَلَكَ أَجْرُ مَا بَقِىَ، صُمْ ثَلاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ مِنْ كلِّ شَهرٍ وَلَكَ أَجْرُ مَا بَقِىَ إِنَّ أَحَبَّ الصّيامِ إِلَى الله، صَوْمُ دَاوُدَ، كَانَ يَصُومُ يَوْمًا وَيُفْطِرُ يَوْمًا".

"Fast one day of every month, and you will have the reward of all that remains. Fast two days of every month, and you will have the reward of all that remains. Fast three days of every month, and you will have the reward of all that remains. The most beloved fasting to Allah is the fasting of Dāwūd; he used to fast one day and break his fast the next."
