Sahih Muslim 1144a (Book 13, Hadith 189) #9828
Fasting on Fridays

SUMMARY: It is not recommended to fast on Fridays, but it is recommended to fast before and after the day.

Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) reported the Messenger of Allah as saying: None among you should observe fast on Friday, but only that he observes fast before it and after it.
وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصٌ، وَأَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، - وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ - أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي، هُرَيْرَةَ - رضى الله عنه - قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ لاَ يَصُمْ أَحَدُكُمْ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ إِلاَّ أَنْ يَصُومَ قَبْلَهُ أَوْ يَصُومَ بَعْدَهُ

QUICK LESSONS:
Observe Fast Before & After Friday .

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith of Abu Huraira states that it is not recommended for Muslims to observe a fast on Fridays. Instead, fasting should be done before and after the day of Friday. This hadith emphasizes the importance of fasting in Islam as a form of worship and devotion to Allah. It also encourages Muslims to practice moderation in their religious practices, as fasting every single day can become too strenuous for some people. Additionally, this hadith serves as an example of how Prophet Muhammad encouraged his followers to practice moderation in their religious practices rather than going overboard with them.

The Prophet Muhammad was known for his wisdom and compassion when it came to teaching his followers about religion and spirituality. He taught them that moderation was key when it came to practicing their faith so that they could remain healthy both physically and spiritually while still fulfilling their obligations towards Allah. This hadith serves as an example of this wisdom by encouraging Muslims not only to observe fasts but also do so in moderation by avoiding doing so every single day or week such as on Fridays specifically mentioned here.
