[2669] 136 - (1136) It was narrated that Ar-Rubayy' bint Mu'awwidh bin 'Afrâ' said: "On the morning of Āshūrâ, the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ sent word to the villages of the Anṣâr around Al-Madīnah, saying: 'Whoever started the day fasting, let him complete his fast, and whoever started the day not fasting, let him complete the rest of the day (without food).'" "After that, we used to fast on this day, and we would make our children fast too, even the little ones if Allâh wills. And we used to take them to the Masjid. We would make them toys out of wool, and if one of them cried for food, we would give (that toy) to him until it was time to break the fast."
