Waiting for jackfruit harvest for the third time

There are several new bud on our jackfruit tree in front of our house. I observe them every morning. I will harvest jackfruit for the third time in next several month. The seed of our jackfruit tree is from my parent's jackfruit tree. I planted that tree from the seed that I've got when our parent gave us jackfruit about seven or eight years ago.

At the time I put the seed in a soil that placed in a plastic. After the seed grew up then I move the tree to the soil in front of our house fence. People said that our jackfruit had good yellow color, sweet and thick. I love it too. At first we intended to chop down that tree because the root of jackfruit tree made our front yard damaged. It made our fence wall cracked. But when I realized that we have good and nice jackfruit we decided to cancel to chop down that tree.

We just cut several root that made our front yard damaged. In addition to produce jackfruit, the tree also give us shady atmosphere. On the daylight when there is hot and bright sun, we were covered by the leafy jackfruit tree. It is fun when we have a plantation in our yard. I'd like to plant another plant, but unfortunately our front yard is not big enough for other plant.

Is there any suggestion of fasting in the Rajab month?

There is a valuable benefit from Ibnu Taimiyah rahimahullah about worship practice in Rajab month including fasting in that month. As for to make special on Rajab and Sya’ban month to conduct fasting on all day of that month or itikaf on that time, then there is no guidance from the Prophet Shallallahu ‘alaihi wa sallam.

It is also not recommended by scholars of the Muslims. Even in the authentic hadith is explained that Prophet Shallallahu ‘alaihi wa sallam usually often fasting in Sya’ban month . And in one year He is never fasting more often than in Sya’ban month if compare with another month.

As for to do fasting in Rajab month, then actually that is all based on weak hadith (dho’if) or faked hadith. The scholars never use these hadith as references.

So, there is nothing special with fasting in Rajab month. Which highly reprehensible that is if fasting is conducted all day in Rajab month such as Ramadhan month or assume that fasting in Rajab month is more special that in another month. And there is also no specificity to conduct fasting on certain day in Rajab month as some people believe.

If someone have the habit of fasting on Monday and Thursday, Daud prophet fasting, or 3 day fasting in the middle of the month, then please continue that routine activity in Rajab month.
