English narration

Narrated by عبد الله بن العباس القرشي

Al-Hakam bin al-Araj said: I came to Ibn Abbas who was leaning against his sheet of cloth in the Sacred Mosque (al-Masjid al-Haram). I asked him about fasting on the day of Ashurah. He said: When you sight the moon of al-Muharram, count (the days). When the 9th of Muharram comes, fast from the morning. I said: Would Muhammad ﷺ observe this fast ? He replied: Thus Muhammad ﷺ used to fast.

حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ غَلَّابٍ . ح وحَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ، أَخْبَرَنِي حَاجِبُ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، جَمِيعًا الْمَعْنَى عَنْ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ الْأَعْرَجِ ، قَالَ : أَتَيْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ وَهُوَ مُتَوَسِّدٌ رِدَاءَهُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ . فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ صَوْمِ يَوْمِ عَاشُورَاءَ . فَقَالَ : "

إِذَا رَأَيْتَ هِلَالَ الْمُحَرَّمِ فَاعْدُدْ ، فَإِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ التَّاسِعِ فَأَصْبِحْ صَائِمًا

" . فَقُلْتُ : كَذَا كَانَ مُحَمَّدٌ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَصُومُ ؟ فَقَالَ : كَذَلِكَ كَانَ مُحَمَّدٌ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَصُومُ .
