Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 5105

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ : مَرَّ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِأُنَاسٍ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ وَقَدْ صَامُوا يَوْمَ عَاشُورَاءَ فَقَالَ : " مَا هَذَا مِنَ الصَّوْمِ ؟ " . فَقَالُوا : هَذَا الْيَوْمُ الَّذِي نَجَّى اللَّهُ مُوسَى وَبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنَ الْغَرَقِ ، وَغَرِقَ فِيهِ فِرْعَوْنُ ، وَهَذَا يَوْمٌ اسْتَوَتْ فِيهِ السَّفِينَةُ عَلَى الْجُودِيِّ ، فَصَامَ نُوحٌ وَمُوسَى شُكْرًا لِلَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ . فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَنَا أَحَقُّ بِمُوسَى وَأَحَقُّ بِصَوْمِ هَذَا الْيَوْمِ " . فَأَمَرَ أَصْحَابَهُ بِالصَّوْمِ .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَفِيهِ حَبِيبُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْأَزْدِيُّ لَمْ يَرْوِ عَنْهُ غَيْرُ ابْنِهِ .
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by some Jews who were fasting on the day of Ashura. He asked: "What is this fast for?" They said: "This is the day on which Allah Almighty saved Sayyiduna Musa (peace be upon him) and the Children of Israel from drowning and drowned Pharaoh, and this is the day on which the ark (of Sayyiduna Nuh (peace be upon him)) came to rest on Mount Judi, so Sayyiduna Nuh (peace be upon him) and Sayyiduna Musa (peace be upon him) fasted (on this day) to give thanks to Allah Almighty." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "We are closer to Sayyiduna Musa (peace be upon him) and more entitled to fast." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered his Companions to fast (on that day).
Ahmad recorded it. Its chain contains a narrator, Habib bin Abdullah al-Azdi, from whom no one but his son has narrated.
