English translation
[2645] 119 - (...) 'Abdullāh bin 'Umar [may Allāh be pleased with them] narrated that he heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say concerning the day of 'Āshūrā': "This day was fasted by the people of Jāhiliyyah, so whoever wants to fast it, let him do so, and whoever wants to leave it, let him do so." 'Abdullāh [may Allāh be pleased with them] would not fast it, except when it coincided with a day that he usually fasted.
