Fasting the day of Arafat
Aboo Hafsah, may Allaah be pleased with him, reported that the Prophet, peace & blessings be upon him, his family, his companions & all those that follow them in righteousness, said:
“Fasting on the day of ‘Arafah absolves the sins for two years: the previous year & the coming year, & fasting on ‘Ashoorah, (the tenth day of Muharram) atones for the sins of previous year.”
[(Please note: the sins that are referred to here are the minor sins) Reported by all except
Al-Bukharee & at-Tirmidhee]
In another saying the Prophet’s, peace & blessings be upon him, his family, his companions & all those that follow them in righteousness, wife Hafsah, may Allaah be pleased with her, said:
“Four things the Messenger of Allaah, peace & blessings be upon him, his family, his companions & all those that follow them in righteousness, never neglected: Observing fast on the day of ‘Ashoorah, ‘Arafat, three days every month, & offering Fajr sunnaah prayers early in the morning.”
