Musnad Abi Ya'la 3820 — the Ansar had two (festival) days fixed
وَعَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ الْأَنْصَارَ كَانَ لَهُمْ يَوْمَانِ يَلْعَبُونَ فِيهِمَا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : قَدْ أَبْدَلَكُمُ اللهُ يَوْمَيْنِ خَيْرًا مِنْهُمَا : الْفِطْرَ وَالْأَضْحَى .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Ansar had two (festival) days fixed, on which they used to play and celebrate in the days of ignorance (Jahiliyyah). Then when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came (to Madinah), he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, Allah Almighty has given you, in place of these two days, two days better than them: Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha."
