Zakir Naik – The Virtue of Fasting on the Day of Arafah

			It's mentioned in Sahib Muslim, volume
		

			3, hadith number
		

			2747,
		

			with the beloved prophet Musa al Salam al
		

			asked
		

			about
		

			experience
		

			the sins of the previous year
		

			and the coming year.
		

			The most important fast
		

			after the 1st fast of Ramadan
		

			is the fasting on the day of Arafah.
		

			It's the most important. There are some scholars,
		

			very few, who say fasting
		

			of maharam, the fasting of Ashura
		

			is the most important
		

			after the first fast of Ramna because the
		

			hadith of the prophet
		

			we say that fasting in Maram and Ashura
		

			is the most important fast
		

			after the fast of Ramadan. But in this
		

			fast, the prophet said
		

			the sins of the previous year in this
		

			age
		

			is forgiven. But
		

			if you fast during the day of Arafa,
		

			then
		

			the sins of the previous year
		

			and the next year, the following year, 2
		

			years of forgiven. That will be the most
		

			of the scholars say that the most important
		

			fast after the fasting of the the fast
		

			of Ramnaan is the fasting of Harafa. But
		

			it is unanimous that these two fasts, the
		

			fasting of Harafa and the fasting
		

			of Ashura are the 2 most important fasts
		

			after the 1st fast of Armani.
