There is a Hadith that— Narrated from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him).

Is the Hadith authentic, Sheikh ?

ANSWER:
It is an issue of dispute among scholars whether it is authentic or not. Great Imams such as Imam Ahmed had graded it as weak.
Nevertheless, the scholars say that it is not a prohibition to fast it but rather a recommendation for those who may get weak and tired.
