Reward of fasting on first Thursday, middle Wednesday and last Thursday of the month
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِیِّ بْنِ مَاجِیلَوَیْهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی عَمِّی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِی الْقَاسِمِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبَرْقِیِّ عَنْ أَبِیهِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْمُغِیرَهِ عَنْ یَزِیدَ بْنِ خَلِیفَهَ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع إِنَّهُ یَشْتَدُّ عَلَیَّ الصَّوْمُ فِی الْحَرِّ فَأَجِدُ الصُّدَاعَ فَقَالَ اصْنَعْ کَمَا أَصْنَعُ أَنَا إِذَا سَافَرْتُ أَتَصَدَّقُ کُلَّ یَوْمٍ بِمُدٍّ عَلَی أَهْلِیَ الَّذِی أَقُوتُهُمْ بِهِ.
10. It was narrated to us by Muhammad b. Ali b. Majluwayh who said it was narrated to me by my uncle Muhammad b. Abi al-Qasim from Ahmad b. Abi Abdillah al-Barqi from his father Muhammad b. Khalid from Abdillah b. al-Mughira from Yazid b. Khalifa who said: The narrator asked Imam Ja’far Sadiq عليه السلام, “O master! It is difficult for me to fast during summer and my head starts aching.” Imam عليه السلام replied, “Do what I do. When I go on a journey, for each day I give in Sadaqah one Mudd (750 grams) of food as I give to my family members.”
