Abdullah b. 'Umar (Allah be pleased with both of them) reported that he heard the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) say about the day of Ashura: It is a day on which the people of pre-Islamic days observed fast. So he who liked to fast on this day should do so, and he who liked to abandon it should abandon it. 'Abdullah (Allah be pleased with him) did not observe fast except when it coincided (with the days when he was in the habit of observing voluntary fasts during every month).
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ كَثِيرٍ، حَدَّثَنِي نَافِعٌ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا، حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ فِي يَوْمِ عَاشُورَاءَ: «إِنَّ هَذَا يَوْمٌ كَانَ يَصُومُهُ أَهْلُ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، فَمَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَصُومَهُ فَلْيَصُمْهُ، وَمَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَتْرُكَهُ فَلْيَتْرُكْهُ» وَكَانَ عَبْدُ اللهِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ لَا يَصُومُهُ، إِلَّا أَنْ يُوَافِقَ صِيَامَهُ
  ابو کریب ، ابو اسامہ ، ولید ، ابن کثیر ، نافع ، حضرت ابن عمر رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ بیان کرتے ہیں انہوں نے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے عاشورہ کے دن کے بارے میں فرماتےہوئے سنا کہ یہ وہ دن ہے جس دن جاہلیت کےلوگ روزہ رکھتے تھے تو جو کوئی پسند کرتاہے کہ اس دن روزہ رکھے تو وہ روزہ رکھ لے اور جو کوئی یہ پسند کرتا ہے کہ چھوڑ دے تو وہ چھوڑ دے اور حضرت عبداللہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ روزہ نہیں رکھتے تھے سوائے اس کے کہ ان روزوں سے موافقت ہوجائے ۔
