'Abdullah ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنهما) said: "When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) fasted on 'Ashura' and commanded the Muslims to fast as well, they said, 'O Messenger of Allah, it is a day that is venerated by the Jews and Christians.' The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, 'If I live to see the next year, insha Allah, we will fast on the ninth day too.' But it so happened that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) passed away before the next year came." [Reported by Muslim, 1916]
