month in which we are encouraged to fast as much as we can
20 ساعة ·
It
is the month in which we are encouraged to fast as much as we can,
however we should not fast the entire month as we do in Ramadhan. The
most important day of fasting in this month is the fast of ‘Aashoora,
the 10th, which expiates the minor sins of one whole year. (Saheeh
Muslim)
The fast of ‘Aashoora' is in commemoration of the day that Allah saved the Children of Israel and their prophet Moses, peace be upon him, from their enemy. It is a day also venerated by the Jews. [Bukhari]
The fast of ‘Aashoora' is in commemoration of the day that Allah saved the Children of Israel and their prophet Moses, peace be upon him, from their enemy. It is a day also venerated by the Jews. [Bukhari]
There are different ways to fast this occasion. One can choose to fast
the 10th of Muharram only (the day of ‘Aashoora'), but it is recommended
to also fast the previous day or the day following it along with it.
The day of 'Aashoora' falls on Monday 3rd November, this year.
For those of you who still have missed fasts from the days of Ramadhan to make up, may Allah accept your intention of making up the fast of Ramadhan whilst also seeking the reward of the fast of ‘Aashoora'.
I ask Allah to help us seek out the blessings of this sacred month, accept our fasts, and grant us His forgiveness for fasting the day of ‘Aashoora'.
May you be blessed in this world and the next. Aameen.

عَاشُورَاءَ Ashura
Excellence of Fasting on Ashura
۔۔۔ وَصِيَامُ يَوْمِ عَاشُورَاءَ أَحْتَسِبُ عَلَى اللَّهِ أَنْ يُكَفِّرَ السَّنَةَ الَّتِي قَبْلَهُ
… and I seek from Allah that fasting on the day of Ashura may atone for the sins of the preceding year.
۔۔۔ اور عاشورہ کے دن روزہ رکھنے سے بھی اللہ تعالیٰ کی ذات سے امید کرتا ہوں کہ یہ ایک روزہ اس کے ایک سال پہلے کے گناہوں کا کفارہ بن جائے گا۔
[Extracted from Sahih Muslim, Book of Fasting, Hadith: 2746]
