Assalamualakum brother's and sister's

I have a question about the 6 days of shawwal. Am i aloud to fast on the 20th of october if i did eid on the 20th of september?

As from my understanding you have one month to do it so does it end on the 20th or the 30th and if i celebrated eid on the 20th of september am i aloud to fast on the 20th of october???

Thank you

Jazakallah Khairan

shawal is ending on 19th oct 2009 which is monday..on 20th oct is 1st zul qaidah and it will not be consider as shawal fasting but it will be considere as sunnah fasting ...

Wait so whats zul qaidah and whats the reward of it

i also calculated this a couple of days ago because i still have 1 day to go inshallah ..
im fasting my 6th day of shawal tomorrow on monday inshallah.

but if im noty mistaken, shawal is untill and including tuesday if you (like myself) celebrated eid on the 20th of sept,

may ALLAH ta3ala accept our humble acts of worship inshallah..ameen

aselemu aleikum
