Merits of the Helpers in Madinah (Ansaar) - 19th Muharram 1432 (25th
December 2010)
Narrated 'Aisha (Radi-Allahu 'anha):
'Ashura' (i.e. the tenth of Muharram) was a day on which the tribe of
Quraish used to fast in the pre-lslamic period of ignorance. The Prophet
(Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) also used to fast on this day. So when he
migrated to Medina, he fasted on it and ordered (the Muslims) to fast on
it. When the fasting of Ramadan was enjoined, it became optional for the
people to fast or not to fast on the day of Ashura.
