The woman did not err in choosing Monday for fasting, out of consideration for its virtue; for on this day, deeds are presented and believers are forgiven. There is no mockery of religion in her words or in the brother's words. It is advisable to turn away from whisperings (waswasah) and occupy one's time with what is beneficial.
