			It's not number 1. It's word number 3.
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:04
			I did number
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:05
			2467.
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:06
			That
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:08
			the wives of the prophet said,
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:09
			the prophet
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:11
			fasted
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:14
			during the first 9 days of the riqa
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:15
			and he fasted
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:16
			during Ashura
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:17
			and
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:19
			3 days every month.
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:21
			The first Monday
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:23
			2:30.
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:26
			We come to know from this hadith that
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:27
			the prophet fasted
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30
			the first 9 days of the Lidja.
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:33
			That means besides the 9th
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:34
			of the Lidja,
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:36
			the day of Arafah,
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:38
			it is mustahab.
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:42
			It is sunnah to fast all the first
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:43
			9 days
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:44
			of the rijjah.
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:46
			If someone say I cannot, then at least
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:50
			fast beside harafah, Monday and 30. But the
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:52
			best is fasting all
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:55
			the first 9 days of the rijjah because
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:57
			these are the best days
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:58
			of the year.
