Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam 'ala Rasulillah As-Salaam Alaikum Wa-Rahmatullahi Wa-Barakatuhu Fasting - 18th Dhul-Qa'da 1425 (31 December 2004)
Narrated 'Aisha (Radhiallaho anha): (The tribe of) Quraish used to fast on the day of Ashura' in the Pre-lslamic period, and then Allah's Messenger (sallallaahu'alaihi wasallam) ordered (Muslims) to fast on it till the fasting in the month of Ramadan was prescribed; whereupon the Prophet said, "He who wants to fast (on 'Ashura') may fast, and he who does not want to fast may not fast."
