Hadith 281
۞
4. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) narrates that the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) was asked about fasting on two Thursdays and a Wednesday in between them. He replied, “The specialty of Thursday is that one’s deeds are presented on this day while 9 Surah Anaam 6:160 Wednesday is characterized by the creation of Hell on this day. Hence a fast on Wednesday is shield against Hell.”
وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ سَعِیدٍ عَنِ النَّضْرِ بْنِ سُوَیْدٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ عَنِ الْأَحْوَلِ عَمَّنْ ذَکَرَهُ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص سُئِلَ عَنْ صَوْمِ خَمِیسَیْنِ بَیْنَهُمَا أَرْبِعَاءُ فَقَالَ
أَمَّا الْخَمِیسُ فَیَوْمٌ تُعْرَضُ فِیهِ الْأَعْمَالُ وَ أَمَّا الْأَرْبِعَاءُ فَیَوْمٌ خُلِقَتْ فِیهِ النَّارُ وَ أَمَّا الصَّوْمُ فَجُنَّهٌ.
