Haifaa Younis – Why Should We Fast on the Day of Ashura

			This month, has a seat has a special deals, spatula, the first of Muharram is the date that the year
start. The special day is Ashura is the 10th of Muharram. And what is Ashura the 10th of Muharram
what is so special about is one of us, whether you salatu salam migrated to Medina, he found out
that the Jews, fast the 10th day of Ashura
		

			and he said why do they fast and he was told, they celebrate because it is the day that Allah
subhanaw taala saved, so you know Musa from from from Pharaoh, the day that was the you know, Musa
left and Pharaoh followed them, and then Allah decided, or he ordered say, no Musa to use his stick
and the whole ocean will be to pieces or to be two separate parts and say, you know, Musa moved and
continue and Allah subhanaw taala made frown, and his people drowned. That was on the 10th of
Ashura, or the 10th day of Mahalo. So when Roswaal a salatu salam saw that the Jews celebrate and
all of that day he said, we are more or say you know, Musa has more right upon us than the Jews, we
		

			will fast it also. Now how could we be Musa Amin home? Meaning so you know, Musa has more rights or
us as Muslims more than even the Jews, and we should celebrate it
		

			by fasting.
		

			Another good concept for us to learn, we Muslims when we celebrate, we don't celebrate for the
disobedience of the law. Rather we celebrate with the obedience of Allah
		

			Subhanallah we do celebrate with disobedience, we celebrate with obedience. The 10th Day of Muharram
is a day of celebration, because it's the day that say Musa was saved and the Jews celebrated by
obedience to Allah by fasting. Then we and then he taught us and he fasted on a sawed off center.
And he said, If I live the next year, and there is toleration in the same, I will fast the ninth and
the tender touch wa will Ashura weaker 10th and 11th.
		

			When I'm going to be fasting, number one, I need to remember the virtue of fasting that day, it will
remove the sins of the year before fasting the day of Ashura is a sunnah you are following the
footsteps of rasa risotto Sinha? He did it. But I always also say to people invite people for the
fall. So to remind them to resuscitate here give life back to the Sunnah of Rasulullah saw to a son
