Answer:
There are no specific days of Shawwal. The Prophet of Allah (peace be upon him) used to fast more in Shawwal than any other month (other than Ramadhan, of course). This was in preparation for Ramadhan. But there are no specific days.
From the Sunnah (way) of Muhammad (peace be upon him) was:
Fasting three days in the middle of the lunar month (the 13th, 14th and 15th), as well as fasting on Mondays, and Thursdays. He discouraged fasting on Fridays (as a continual habit) without also adding either Thursday, or Saturday. That is simply because he did not want people to start inventing a practice of fasting on the day of congregational prayers. That would be a change to the religion.
