Hiii

Just a reminder about the 9th & 10th of Muharram.

You can fast either on Wednesday 15th and Thursday 16th or Thursday and Friday 17th.

Abu Qatada reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was asked about fasting the Day of 'Ashura' and said, "It expiates the past year." [Muslim]

Ibn 'Abbas reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "If I remain alive until next year, I will fast the ninth." [Muslim]
