اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي بِشْرٍ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْحِمْيَرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَفْضَلُ الصِّيَامِ بَعْدَ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ شَهْرُ اللَّهِ الْمُحَرَّمُ وَأَفْضَلُ الصَّلَاةِ بَعْدَ الْفَرِيضَةِ صَلَاةُ اللَّيْلِ " قَالَ : وَفِي الْبَاب عَنْ جَابِرٍ , وَبِلَالٍ , وَأَبِي أُمَامَةَ ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : حَدِيثُ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : وَأَبُو بِشْرٍ اسْمُهُ : جَعْفَرُ بْنُ أَبِي وَحْشِيَّةَ وَاسْمُ أَبِي وَحْشِيَّةَ : إِيَاسٌ .
´Abu Hurairah narrated that:` Allah's Messenger (S) said: "The most virtuous fasting after the month of Ramadan is that of Allah's month of Al-Muharram. And the most virtuous Salat after the obligatory is the night prayer."

Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
1614. Commentary:
➊ The attribution of Muharram al-Haram to Allah Almighty is because it is the first month of the Islamic year and is a sacred month. Some have interpreted the fasting mentioned here as referring to the fast of ‘Ashura. Others have understood it to mean fasting throughout the entire month of Muharram, and this is the correct position. The apparent wording supports this.
➋ Those who consider the Sunnah prayers associated with the obligatory (fard) prayers to be superior to the Tahajjud prayer do so because these Sunnahs are connected to the obligatory prayers and thus count them as part of the obligatory acts. However, this is not correct. The Tahajjud prayer itself is superior.

The attribution of this month to Allah is a sign of its honor and virtue, just as in the cases of Bayt Allah (the House of Allah) and Naqat Allah (the She-camel of Allah), etc. Muharram is one of the four sacred months. The Islamic year begins with the month of Muharram.

Benefits and Issues:
There is great virtue in observing voluntary fasts during the month of Muharram.
In addition, there is the issue of fasting on ‘Ashura (the 10th of Muharram) along with another day, the details of which are coming ahead.

Benefits and Issues:
(1)
Referring to Muharram as the month of Allah is an indication of its honor and virtue, just as the attribution to Allah in Bayt Allah (the House of Allah), Naqat Allah (the She-camel of Allah), and Ruh Allah (the Spirit of Allah) is for the expression of honor and virtue.
(2)
Observing voluntary fasts (nafl) in Muharram is superior to doing so in other months.
