    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    (Fatwa: 1271/791/L=1433) There is no fixed order of fast on the 15th Shaban. However, the order of keeping fast on 15th of Shaban is mentioned therein a weak traditions of Ibn Majah; hence it is better to keep the fast of 15th of Shaban.

    Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) knows Best
