bayhaqi:8449Abū Muḥammad al-Ḥasan b. ʿAlī b. al-Muʾammal > Abū ʿUthmān ʿAmr b. ʿAbdullāh al-Baṣrī > Abū ʿAmr Aḥmad b. al-Mubārak al-Mustamlī > Isḥāq b. Ibrāhīm > ʿAbdullāh b. Wāqid > Ayyūb b. Nahīk a freed slave of Saʿd b. Abū Waqqāṣ > ʿAṭāʾ > Ibn ʿUmar

[Machine] On the authority of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who said: "Whoever observes fasting on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, and gives in charity, whether a little or a lot, Allah will forgive his sins and he will emerge from his sins as on the day his mother gave birth to him." Abu Yahya bin Nahaik reported it from Muhammad bin Ali bin Abdullah bin Abbas, who reported it from his father, who reported it from Ibn Abbas that he used to prefer fasting on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, and he would inform that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to command people to fast on these days and to give charity, whether a little or a lot, for indeed Allah has much bounty. Abdullah bin Waqid, who is not strong, narrated it and some of the memorizers considered him trustworthy while others considered him weak. Yahya al-Babulti narrated it from Ayub bin Nahaik, from Muhammad bin Qays, from Abu Hazim, from Ibn Umar, and al-Babulti is weak. It has been narrated regarding fasting on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from other weak sources, weaker than this, from Anas.
