Fasting on the Day of ‘Ashura (10th Muharram) It was narrated from Ibn Abbâs [may Allah be pleased with them] that the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) came to Al-Madinah and found the Jews fasting on the day of Ashura. The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said to them: What is this day that you are fasting? They said: This is a great day, on which Allah saved Moses (pbuh) and his people, and drowned Pharaoh and his people. Moses (pbuh) fasted on this day out of gratitude and we fast it too. The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said: We are more entitled to be closer to Moses (pbuh) than you, and the Messenger ofAllah (pbuh) fasted (on this day) and enjoined fasting on it. Sahih Muslim, Volume No. 3, The Book of Fasting, Hadith No. 2658
