Sha'ban fasting

Annual

Aisha reported that the Prophet ﷺ fasted more in Sha'ban than in any other month outside of Ramadan. Sha'ban is the month before Ramadan.

لَمْ يَكُنِ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَصُومُ شَهْرًا أَكْثَرَ مِنْ شَعْبَانَ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يَصُومُ شَعْبَانَ كُلَّهُ
"The Prophet ﷺ never fasted in any month more than in the month of Sha'ban. He used to fast all of Sha'ban."
Sahih al-Bukhari 1970 Sahih
The Prophet ﷺ fasted in Sha'ban more than any other month outside of Ramadan.
