Bismillah Walhamdulillah Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasoolillah,My dear brothers and sisters in Islam,Ayyamul Beedh The white days are the three days in the middle of each Islamic month (Hijri), i.e. 13, 14, and 15. They are called white days because of the moon being full and it lights the sky at night. The significance of the three white days revolves around continuous fasting. We know in Islam when we do a good deed it’s multiplied by ten folds. So when we fast three days in a month as if we fasted for thirty days, meaning the whole month.
Let's check these hadiths:
Jareer ibn ‘Abdullaah radhiyallaahu ‘anhu narrated that the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wasallam said:“Fasting three days of each month is fasting for a lifetime, and ayyam al-beed are the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth.” (Narrated by al-Nasaa’i (2420); classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Targheeb, (1040))
Abu Dharr radhiyallaahu ‘anhu said: The Messenger of Allaah sallallaahu ‘alayhi wasallam said to me: “If you fast any part of the month, then fast the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth.” (Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, (761); al-Nasaa’i, (2424); classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Targheeb, (1038)).
Abu Hurayrah radhiyallaahu ‘anhu said: “My close friend [i.e., the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)] advised me to do three things which I will never give up until I die: fasting three days each month, praying Duha, and sleeping after praying Witr.” (al-Bukhaari, 1178; Muslim, 721).
The Messenger of Allaah sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam said:‘Shall I not tell you of something that will take away the evil of the heart? Fasting three days of each month.’ (an-Nisaa’i 2/2386)

Bukhari :: Book 8 :: Volume 73 :: Hadith 155 Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Amr: Allah's Apostle entered upon me and said, "Have I not been informed that you offer prayer all the night and fast the whole day?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Do not do so; Offer prayer at night and also sleep; Fast for a few days and give up fasting for a few days because your body has a right on you, and your eye has a right on you, and your guest has a right on you, and your wife has a right on you. I hope that you will have a long life, and it is sufficient for you to fast for three days a month as the reward of a good deed, is multiplied ten times, that means, as if you fasted the whole year...Ibn 'Abbas said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, did not fail to fast the white days either when at home or on a journey." [an-Nasa'i]
So, let's fast on these days, Insha Allah
