Fasting Ashura on Tuesday, July 16
Asalamu Alaikum Brothers and Sisters,
May this message find you and your families in the best of health and Iman.
FASTING ASHURA:
**Ashura (10th of Muharram) is on Tuesday, July 16**
The fast of the 9th of Muharram (Monday, July 15) is also encouraged.
"The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: 'The best of fasting after Ramadan is fasting Allah's month of Muharram.'" (Muslim) The Prophet (saw) encourages us to take up a fast during Muharram, on the 9th and 10th days of the month.
Reward for fasting Ashura:
Abu Qataada has related that the Prophet (peace and blessing be upon him and his family) was reported to have said, It is my thought that by fasting on the 10th of Muharram, Allah will pardon the sins of the past year.
Abdullah ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: "When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) fasted on 'Ashura' and commanded the Muslims to fast as well, they said, 'O Messenger of Allah, it is a day that is venerated by the Jews and Christians.' The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, 'If I live to see the next year, insha'Allah, we will fast on the ninth day.' But it so happened that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) passed away before the next year came." [Reported by Muslim, 1916]
