ASHURA FASTING

Fasting is kept on Ashura day in the month of Muharram, on this day Allah destroyed firaun and protected Moosa[asw] and his people.

When Prophet Muhammed[SAW] came to madinah he noticed that the Jews were fasting on the day of Ashura, he asked the Jews the purpose of their fasting and they said that Allah destroyed firaun and his people and protected Moosa[asw] and his people from the clutches of firaun.  As a thanksgiving Moosa[asw] fasted on this day and we are also following him.  Prophet [SAW] said that we have more rights than you over Moosa[asw] and he[SAW] fasted on this day and commanded other to fast on this day.

[Ibn Abbas (ra), Books: Bukhari, Muslim & Abudawood]

The best fasting after Ramadan fasting is Muharram fasting.  Night prayers are the best after the obligatory prayers. 

[Abu Huraira(ra), Books: Muslim & Nisaai]

Fasting of Ashura cleanses the previous year sins. [Abukathada(ra), Books: Muslim, Tirmidhi, Abudawood]

Prophet [saw] has advised not to imitate the Jews so to fast on 9th day along with Ashura.  Also he [saw] said that if he is alive next year he will fast the 9th day too.  But he [saw] expired in the same year.

Those who are willing to fast muharram they should not fast one day and leave the other.  They must fast both the days i.e. 9th & 10th; we must keep in mind that fasting 9th day is to differentiate from the Jews practices which were advised by our beloved Prophet Muhammed[SAW]

InshaAllah coming Wednesday and Thursday 15th & 16th of December 2010 will be the fasting; we will fast and advise other to fast on this day.
