حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ زَكَرِيَّا، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: " كَانَ يَوْمُ عَاشُورَاءَ يَوْمًا يَصُومُهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، وَكَانَتْ قُرَيْشٌ تَصُومُهُ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَدِينَةَ، صَامَهُ وَأَمَرَ بِصِيَامِهِ، فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ رَمَضَانُ، كَانَ رَمَضَانُ هُوَ الْفَرِيضَةَ، وَتَرَكَ عَاشُورَاءَ " (١)،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that in the era of ignorance, the Quraysh used to fast on the tenth of Muharram, and the Prophet (ﷺ) also used to fast on this day. After migrating to Madinah, the Prophet (ﷺ) continued to fast on this day and instructed his companions (may Allah be pleased with them) to do so as well. Then, when the fasts of Ramadan were made obligatory, the Prophet (ﷺ) began to fast only in Ramadan and abandoned the fast of Ashura. Now, whoever wishes may fast on this day, and whoever wishes may leave it.
