NARRATED BY MUSLIM1162. THE PROPHET MUHAMMADﷺ SAID: "FASTING THE DAY OF "'ASHOORA' I HOPE ALLAAH WILL EXPIATE THEREBY FOR THE YEAR THAT CAME BEFORE IT.” PROPHET MUHAMMAD ﷺ WAS KEEN TO FAST THIS DAY SAHIH BUKHARI 1902 THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD ﷺ USED TO BE VERY KEEN TO MAKE SURE HE FASTED ON THE DAY OF 'ASHOORA' BECAUSE OF ITS GREAT STATUS.

It is the punishment for His (ﷺ ) enemies, the prison for evildoers. It is the ultimate humiliation and loss; there is nothing worse: "Our Lord! Verily, whom You admit to the Fire, indeed, You have disgraced him, and never will the Dhaalimoon [polytheists and wrongdoers] find any helpers" (Quran 3:192) "Know they not that whoever opposes and shows hostility to Allah and His Messenger, certainly for him will be the fire of Hell to abide therein? That is extreme disgrace". (Quran 9:63) The losers are those who will lose themselves and their families on the Day of Resurrection. Verily, that will be a manifest loss!" (Quran 39:15) Let's learn about Jahannam so it acts as a deterrent whenever we get tempted to sin. The Gates of Hell Allah ﷻ ...
