Sahih al-Bukhari
Fasting
Chapter: Saum (fasting) in the month of Sha'ban.
Narrated `Aisha:
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to fast till one would say that he would never stop fasting, and he would abandon fasting till one would say that he would never fast. I never saw Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) fasting for a whole month except the month of Ramadan, and did not see him fasting in any month more than in the month of Sha'ban.
Sahih al-Bukhari 1969
