9. And from the previous chain from al-Hussain b. Sa’eed from Ibn Abi ’Umayr from Hafs b. al-Bukhtari from Abi Abdillah 
who said:
“The wives of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) used to put off their obligatory fasts, if any till the month of Shaban so that they do not act as barrier for his desires. As soon as Shaban arrived, they used to start observing fast and the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) also used to observe fast. The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) used to say, ‘Shaban is my month’.”
