i never argued k nahi rakho roze
i jsut said kya kissi ko pata hai k kyun rakhte hein
i learnt few months ago that moharam k roze sunnat hein rakhna
and Prophet used to fast on 9/10 moharram for MOSES
coz issi din unhon ne hijrat ki thi (from egypte)
yes many ppls do fasting on 9th and 10th ..... the main reasone that .... the army of yazeed block the water supply for Hazrat Imam Hussain(AS) from 7th tp 10th Moharam ...... mostly shia do fasting from 7th too 10th some of do on 9th and 10th ... the reason behind is just to show thier love with Hazrat Imam Hussain(AS)...

After Hijrat the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) observed that the jews of Madina fast on the day of 10th Muharam. He asked the jews the reason of fast. They replied that on this day (correspondent to 10th Muharam) KHUDA (jews call ALLAH as Khuda) relieved Hazrat Musa (Moses) from Pharo. This is the reason. Then Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said, "We are more close to Moses." We will too observe fast on this day but we will fast for two days. Either 9 and 10 Muharam or 10 and 11 Muharam so that we will not be identified this occasion as jews. The term of 'Ashura Fast' is wrong and has no evidence from Hadith.
The fight between Hazrat Imam Hussain and Yazeed took place at Kerbala after a long long time after the death of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) so how the fast for this event becomes SUNNAH?
