There is no objection to fasting the last days of Dhul-Qadah, especially if it is followed by fasting the first nine days of Dhul-Hijjah. It is disliked to single out Friday or Saturday for fasting. It is not a "day of doubt" like the thirtieth of Sha'ban, concerning which scholars differed regarding fasting.
