أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو خَلِيفَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ حَدَّثَنَا حَاجِبُ بْنُ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَكَمُ بْنُ الْأَعْرَجِ قَالَ

انْتَهَيْتُ إِلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ وَهُوَ مُتَوَسِّدٌ رِدَاءَهُ عِنْدَ زَمْزَمَ فَجَلَسْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَنِعْمَ الْجَلِيسُ كَانَ فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ عَاشُورَاءَ؟ فَاسْتَوَى جَالِسًا ثُمَّ قَالَ «عَنْ أَيِّ بَابِهِ تَسْأَلُ؟ » قَالَ قُلْتُ عَنْ صِيَامِهِ أَيَّ يَوْمٍ نَصُومُهُ؟ قَالَ «إِذَا رَأَيْتَ هِلَالَ الْمُحَرَّمِ فَاعْدُدْ ثُمَّ أَصْبِحْ مِنْ تَاسِعِهِ صَائِمًا» قُلْتُ أَكَذَلِكَ كَانَ يَصُومُ مُحَمَّدٌ ﷺ قَالَ «نَعَمْ»

✧ I came to Ibn Abbas while he was reclining on his cloak at Zamzam, so I sat with him, and what an excellent companion he was. I asked him about Ashura. He sat up straight and said, "About which aspect of it are you asking?" I said, "About its fasting: which day do we fast?" He said, "When you see the crescent of Muharram, count, then begin the ninth day fasting." I said, "Is that how Muhammad ﷺ used to fast?" He said, "Yes."
