Make Up For The Missed Fasts

If you want to make up for the missed fasts of last Ramadan, Shabaan is the best month to start keeping those fasts.

It has been narrated in a Hadith that Usamah ibn Zayd (RA) said: I said, ‘Oh Messenger of Allah, I do not see you fasting in any other month like you fast in Shabaan.’ He said, ‘That is a month to which people do not pay attention, between Rajab and Ramadan, and it is a month in which deeds are lifted up to the Lord of the Worlds. I like for my deeds to be lifted up when I am fasting.’” (Narrated by al-Nasaai)

In order to prepare the body, mind and soul for the month of Ramadan, it is important to fast often before the commencement of this holy month.
