Fasting on Day of A’shora

11/21/2012

Comments

 
A’shora (10th of Muharram) falls on November 24 (Saturday) in USA and Canada. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Fasting the day of `A’shora’ (is of great merits), I hope that Allah will accept it as an expiation for (the sins committed in) the previous year” (Muslim).

Ibn `Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: “I never saw Allah’s Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) so keen to fast any day and give it priority over any other than this day, the day of `A’shora’, and this month, meaning Ramadan.” (Al-Bukhari, Hadith 1867).

It is preferred to fast the day of A’shora along with one day before it or one day after it or both.

May Allah accept our fast, and He knows best.
