حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ، جَمِيعًا عَنِ اللَّيْثِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، قَالَ ابْنُ رُمْحٍ: أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، أَنَّ عِرَاكًا، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ عُرْوَةَ، أَخْبَرَهُ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ أَخْبَرَتْهُ: أَنَّ قُرَيْشًا كَانَتْ تَصُومُ عَاشُورَاءَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِصِيَامِهِ، حَتَّى فُرِضَ رَمَضَانُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ شَاءَ فَلْيَصُمْهُ، وَمَنْ شَاءَ فَلْيُفْطِرْهُ».

The Quraish used to fast on the day of Ashura during the pre-Islamic days. The Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) then commanded to fast on that day till (fasting) in Ramadan became obligatory. Then the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said: He who wishes to fast should do so, and he who wishes to break it may do so.
