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.
