When he came to Madīnah he fasted it and ordered it to be fasted. When Ramadān was obligated he gave up the Day of 'Āshūrā, so whoever wanted fasted it and whoever wanted left it."* {Al-Bukhārī #2002 and Muslim #1125}. This hadith is evidence that the people of jāhiliiyah used to know about 'Āshūrā, it was a famous day among them, and they used to fast it. The Prophet (ﷺ) used to fast it also and continued fasting it before migrating. He (ﷺ) did not command the people to fast it (after Ramadān was legislated). This is evidence for the sacredness of this day and the greatness of its status among the Arabs in the period before Islām, before the sending of the Prophet (ﷺ). Due to this they used to cover the Ka'bah on this day as is found in the hadith of 'A'ishah (may ALLĀH be pleased with her) who said, *"They used to fast 'Āshūrā before Ramadān was obligated and it was the day they covered the Ka'bah..."* {Al-Bukhārī #1952} Al-Qurtubi said, "The hadith of 'A'ishah shows that the legislation and status of fasting this day was known to them. Perhaps they based fasting it on the legislation of Ibrāhīm and Ismā'īl  (peace be upon them) because they used to ascribe themselves to these Prophets and based many of their rulings for Hajj and other than that on them..." {Al-Mufhim, 3/190} What is derived from the gathering of evidences is that fasting 'Āshūrā was obligatory in the beginning after the migration of the Prophet (ﷺ) to al-Madīnah according to the correct opinion of the people of knowledge. The command to fast it is established by the hadith of Salamah ibn al-Akwa' (may ALLĀH be pleased with him). He said, *"The Prophet (ﷺ) ordered a man from the tribe of Aslam to announce to the people: 'Whoever was eating then let him fast the rest of the day and whoever did not eat then let him fast for today is the Day of 'Ashūrā."* {al-Bukhārī #2007 and Muslim #1135} When Ramadān was made obligatory in the second year of the hijrah, the obligation to fast 'Āshūrā was abrogated but it remained recommended. The command to fast the Day of 'Ashūrā was only for one year and that was the second year of hijrah when it was obligated in the beginning of that year. Then Ramadān was obligated after half of that year passed. At the end of his life in the tenth year, the Prophet (ﷺ )determined not to fast it by itself but to fast the 9th day before it as will be shown later if ALLĀH wills. This is an instance of differing with the People of the Book in the way that they fast. *{Taken from: Ahadith about the Tens Days of Dhul-Hijjah and the Days of Tashriq, Rulings and Manners || Page 66-68}* *Please join my WhatsApp Channel:* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaeSHIh7YSdBtluON83B

Anta qaiyyimus-samawati wal-ard wa man fihinna. Walakal-hamd, Laka mulkus-samawati wal-ard wa man fihinna. Walakal-hamd, anta nurus-samawati wal-ard.

(O ALLAH! ALL the praises are for YOU, YOU are the Holder of the Heavens and the Earth, And whatever is in them. All the praises are for YOU; YOU have the possession of the Heavens and the Earth And whatever is in them. All the praises are for YOU; YOU are the Light of the Heavens and the Earth And all the praises are for YOU; YOU are the KING of the Heavens and the Earth; And all the praises are for YOU; YOU are the Truth and YOUR Promise is the truth, And to meet YOU is true, YOUR Word is the truth And Paradise is true And Hell is true And all the Prophets (Peace be upon them) are true; And Muhammad (SALALLAHU ALAYHI WA SALAAM) is true, And the Day of Resurrection is true. O ALLAH! I surrender (my will) to YOU; I believe in YOU and depend on YOU. And repent to YOU, And with YOUR help I argue (with my opponents, the non-believers) And I take YOU as a judge (to judge between us). Please forgive me my previous And future sins; And whatever I concealed or revealed And YOU are the ONE who make (some people) forward And (some) backward. There is none to be worshipped but you. *(Bukhari)* Sufyan said that Abdul Karim Abu Umaiya added to the above, 'WALA HAULA WALA QUWATA ILLA BILLAH' (There is neither might nor power except with ALLAH). *Dua to be recited in the morning:* بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ أَصْبَـحْـنا وَأَصْبَـحْ المُـلكُ للهِ رَبِّ العـالَمـين ، اللّهُـمَّ إِنِّـي أسْـأَلُـكَ خَـيْرَ هـذا الـيَوْم ، فَـتْحَهُ ، وَنَصْـرَهُ ، وَنـورَهُ وَبَـرَكَتَـهُ ، وَهُـداهُ ، وَأَعـوذُ بِـكَ مِـنْ شَـرِّ ما فـيهِ وَشَـرِّ ما بَعْـدَه Asbahna Wa Asbahal Mulku Lillahi Rabbil Aalameen.

And there is no life in the heart except by knowing its creator, having love for HIM, worshipping HIM solely, turning to HIM in times of need, and seeking tranquillity with HIS remembrance. And he who loses this life has lost all good. Even if he attempts to substitute (this loss) with all that is in the world. For verily not even all of the world together would be able to replace this life. And verily for everything that a slave loses there is a substitute, but the one who loses ALLAH (سبحانه وتعالى) will never find anything to replace HIM. *- Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyya (رحمه الله)* *[Ad-Da'a wad-Dawa'a, pg. 49]* *Please perform your Esha Salaah early, the later it gets the more difficult it is to perform and please perform ALL your Sunnats*

The one who does them is not regarded as being ahead of others unless he does two things: hastening to do the good deed, making the most of the opportunity when the time for it comes and it is due, and striving hard to do it properly as enjoined. This verse indicates that the individual should hasten to offer the prayer and do other deeds when the time for them begins, and that he should not limit himself only to that which makes the deed acceptable in the case of prayer and other obligatory acts of worship; rather he should strive to do whatever he is able to of all actions that are recommended, so as to complete and perfect his deeds and attain the position of being ahead of others. *{Tafsi‌r As-Sa'di}* Abu Hurairah (May ALLĀH be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of ALLĀH said, *"Hasten to do good deeds before you are overtaken by one of the seven afflictions."* *Then (giving a warning) he said, "Are you waiting for poverty which will make you unmindful of devotion, or prosperity which will make you corrupt, or a disease which will disable you, or senility which will make you mentally unstable, or sudden death which will take you all of a sudden, or Ad-Dajjal who is the worst expected, or the Hour; and the Hour will be most grievous and most bitter.''* *{Sunan at-Tirmidhī #2306}* Umar ibn al-Khattab (may ALLĀH be pleased with him) reported: *The Messenger of ALLĀH (ﷺ) ordered us to give charity and at the time I had some wealth. I said to myself, “Today I will outdo Abu Bakr (may ALLĀH be pleased with him), if ever there were a day to outdo him.” I went with half of my wealth to the Prophet and he said, “What have you left for your family?” I said, “The same amount.” Then, Abu Bakr came with everything he had. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “O Abu Bakr, what have you left for your family?” Abu Bakr said, “ALLĀH and his messenger.” I said, “By ALLĀH, I will never do better than Abu Bakr.”* *{Sunan al-Tirmidhī #3675}* The former hadith indicates hastening to do good deed before one becomes incapacitated, while the later indicates hastening to surpass others in doing good. Both meanings are indicated by the verse. https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaeSHIh7YSdBtluON83B
