(وَعَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ): عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: قَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ: أَرَأَيْتَ صِيَامَ عَرَفَةَ؟ قَالَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((أَحْتَسِبُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ أَنْ يُكَفِّرَ السَّنَةَ الْمَاضِيَةَ وَالْبَاقِيَةَ))، قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! أَرَأَيْتَ صَوْمَ عَاشُورَاءَ؟ قَالَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((أَحْتَسِبُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ أَنْ يُكَفِّرَ السَّنَةَ))
