Salaam.
With regards to fasting on Mondays & Thursdays we all know this is a sunnah and there is great reward.
I have one question .. can you keep a fast on every Monday and Thursday or is there a limit of 3 per month? (i heard this was sunnah but not sure)
If you would like to exceed 3 per month would this be a problem? is this going against the sunnah?
JazakAllah Khair.

The sunnah is to fast at least three days in a month - not upto three days.

Iv never heard of any limitations on fasting Mondays and Thursdays.

Also there is great reward for fasting 3 days in a month (midmonth) not sure if there is more reward if you fast on certain days or anytime of the month.
