Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي حُمَيْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ مُعَاوِيَةَ يَخْطُبُ بِالْمَدِينَةِ يَقُولُ يَا أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ أَيْنَ عُلَمَاؤُكُمْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ هَذَا يَوْمُ عَاشُورَاءَ وَلَمْ يُفْرَضْ عَلَيْنَا صِيَامُهُ فَمَنْ شَاءَ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يَصُومَ فَلْيَصُمْ فَإِنِّي صَائِمٌ فَصَامَ النَّاسُ حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي حَفْصَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنَ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ يَوْمَ عَاشُورَاءَ عَامَ حَجَّ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ.
English Translation
'Abd al-Razzaq narrated to us: Ma'mar narrated to us from al-Zuhri, who said: Humayd ibn 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Awf narrated to me: that he heard Mu'awiya delivering a sermon in Medina, saying: 'O people of Medina, where are your scholars? I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: This is the Day of 'Ashura', and its fasting was not made obligatory upon us; so whoever among you wishes to fast it, let him fast, for I am fasting.' So the people fasted. Rawh narrated to us: Malik and Muhammad ibn Abi Hafsa narrated to us from Ibn Shihab from Humayd ibn 'Abd al-Rahman: that he heard Mu'awiya ibn Abi Sufyan on the Day of 'Ashura, in the year he performed Hajj, while upon the pulpit, and he mentioned the hadith.
