| Khemah wukuf jemaah haji Malaysia di Arafah Plain, 2008 |
Sunat berpuasa pada Hari Arafah, 9 Zulhijjah bagi mereka yang tidak mengerjakan haji. Jom pakat rama-ramai berpuasa esok..
---------------------------------------
Abu Qatada al-Ansari (Allah
be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon
him) was asked about his fasting. The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon
him) felt annoyed.
Thereupon ‘Umar (Allah be
pleased with him) said: We are pleased with Allah as the Lord, with Islam as
our Code of Life, with Muhammad as the Messenger and with our pledge (to you
for willing and cheerful submission) as a (sacred) commitment. He was then
asked about perpetual fasting, whereupon he said: He neither fasted nor did he
break it, or he did not fast and he did not break it. He was then asked about
fasting for two days and breaking one day. He (the Holy Prophet) said: And who
has strength enough to do it? He was asked about fasting for a day and breaking
for two days, whereupon he said: May Allah bestow upon us strength to do it. He
was then asked about fasting for a day and breaking on the other, whereupon he
said: That is the fasting of my brother David (peace be upon him). He was then
asked about fasting on Monday, whereupon he said: It was the day on which I was
bor, on which I was commissioned with prophethood or revelation was sent to
me, (and he further) said: Three days’ fasting every month and of the whole of
Ramadan every year is a perpetual fast.
He was asked about fasting
on the day of ‘Arafa (9th of Dhu’I-Hijja), whereupon he said: It expiates the
sins of the preceding year and the coming year. He was asked about fasting on
the day of ‘Ashura (10th of Muharram), whereupon be said: It expiates the sins
of the preceding year. (Imam Muslim said that in this hadith there is a)
narration of Imam Shu’ba that he was asked about fasting on Monday and
Thursday, but we (Imam Muslim) did not mention Thursday for we found it as an
error (in reporting).
