Day of Ashura
The 10th of Muharram (Day of Ashura) is one of the greatest days of the year – a day the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) highly encouraged us to fast. "Fast the Day of Ashura, for indeed I anticipate that Allah will forgive (the sins of) the year before it." [Tirmidhi]
This is the day in which
* Prophet Adam was absolved of his error;
* The day in which Prophet Nuh was saved from the flood;
* The day in which the people of Prophet Yunus were forgiven;
* The day in which Prophet Musa and Bani Israel were saved from the Pharaoh
It is from the days in which Allah favored and honored those He tested with trials and challenges – and who responded right through the right choices. Knowing the history of faith—the life of the Prophet (ﷺ) himself, the past Prophets, the righteous, scholars, saints, and the righteous—is important because it gives us examples of turning to Allah through the tests of life and becoming His honored and beloved servants.
