وَحَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ، فَوَجَدَ الْيَهُودَ صِيَامًا يَوْمَ عَاشُورَاءَ، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «مَا هَذَا الْيَوْمُ الَّذِي تَصُومُونَهُ؟» فَقَالُوا: هَذَا يَوْمٌ عَظِيمٌ، أَنْجَى اللَّهُ فِيهِ مُوسَى وَقَوْمَهُ، وَغَرَّقَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَقَوْمَهُ، فَصَامَهُ مُوسَى شُكْرًا، فَنَحْنُ نَصُومُهُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «فَنَحْنُ أَحَقُّ وَأَوْلَى بِمُوسَى مِنْكُمْ»، فَصَامَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَمَرَ بِصِيَامِهِ.

that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to Madinah and found the Jews fasting on the day of Ashura. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to them, "What is this day that you fast?" They said, "This is a great day on which Allah saved Moses and his people and drowned Pharaoh and his people. Moses fasted it out of gratitude, so we fast it." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "We have more right and are closer to Moses than you." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ fasted it and commanded that it be fasted.
