ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " أَفْطَرَ بِعَرَفَةَ ، وَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيْهِ أُمُّ الْفَضْلِ بِلَبَنٍ فَشَرِبَ " . وَفِي الْبَاب عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، وَابْنِ عُمَرَ ، وَأُمِّ الْفَضْلِ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : حَدِيثُ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ، وَقَدْ رُوِيَ عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : حَجَجْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَلَمْ يَصُمْهُ يَعْنِي يَوْمَ عَرَفَةَ ، وَمَعَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَلَمْ يَصُمْهُ ، وَمَعَ عُمَرَ فَلَمْ يَصُمْهُ ، وَمَعَ عُثْمَانَ فَلَمْ يَصُمْهُ . وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَكْثَرِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ يَسْتَحِبُّونَ الْإِفْطَارَ بِعَرَفَةَ لِيَتَقَوَّى بِهِ الرَّجُلُ عَلَى الدُّعَاءِ ، وَقَدْ صَامَ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ يَوْمَ عَرَفَةَ بِعَرَفَةَ .

In this hadith, it is stated that on the Day of Arafah, the pilgrims who are present in the plain of Arafah will not fast; apart from them, the rest of the Muslim Ummah will fast on the Day of Arafah, the 9th of Dhul-Hijjah. The great virtue of this fast has been reported. It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah Al-Ansari radi Allahu anhu that the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was asked about fasting on the Day of Arafah, so he sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said: "It expiates the sins of the previous year and the coming year." [صحيح مسلم : 1162]
