The white days are 3 days of the Hijri month during which fasting is strongly recommended. Imam Tirmidhi reports that the Prophet Muhammad - that peace be upon him - he said "If you want to fast three days a month, fast on the 13th, 14th and 15th day." Obviously he was talking about the lunar months of the Muslim calendar. Not the days of May.

Abu Huraira narrates that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Allah the Exalted and Majestic said: Every deed of the son of Adam is for him, except fasting. It is (exclusively) intended for Me and I (alone) will reward it. Fasting is a shield. When one of you fasts one day, he must neither indulge in obscene language nor raise his voice; or if anyone insults him or tries to quarrel with him, he should say: I am a fasting person. By Him, in whose hand is the life of Muhammad, the breath of the fast-watcher is sweeter to Allah on the Day of Judgment than the fragrance of musk. One who fasts has two (occasions) of joy, one when he breaks the fast, he rejoices in the breaking (of the fast) and one when he meets his Lord, he rejoices in his fast >.
