Why Did Prophet Muhammad ﷺ Fast on Ashura? The Story Behind I Dr. Haifaa Younis | Jannah Institute |

The Day of Ashura is the 10th of Muharram, a day of great significance. It marks the day Allah saved Prophet Musa (Moses) and his people from Pharaoh by parting the Red Sea — a powerful reminder that Allah’s help comes when we trust Him. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ used to fast on this day and said: "Fasting the day of Ashura, I hope Allah will expiate thereby for the year that came before it."
