Fast the Day of Arafaat on Monday 14th October 2013

[B] Fast the Blessed Day of Arafaat is on Monday (14th October 2013) [/B]

 

Fasting on the day of Arafaat is a great Sunnah and most rewarding. It is an expiation of 2 years of sins:

 
Abu Qatada (Ra) related that the Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said, [COLOR=red]“Fasting the Day of `Arafah (9th of Dhu’l Hijjah) expiates for two years, one prior and one forthcoming. And fasting the Day of `Ashura (10th of Muharram) expiates for the past year.” [/COLOR][B][Muslim, Abu Dawud, Nasa’i, and Ibn Majah][/B]

Subhanallah how merciful and generous is Allah. Therefore we should take advantage of this blessed day and keep this fast.
