The Salaf and Fasting Aashoora'

Imam az-Zuhri (may Allah have Mercy on him) used to fast Aashoora’ even when he used to travel and once was asked, “Why do you fast Aashoora’ whilst travelling but don’t fast whilst travelling during Ramadan?” He said, “Ramadan fasts can be made up but if a person misses Aashoora’, he will miss it.”

Siyar ‘Alaam an-Nubalaa’, 5/342

Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali (may Allah have Mercy on him) said:

A group of the Salaf used to fast Aashoora’ even during their travels. From them Ibn ‘Abbas, Abu Ishaq, as-Sabee’ee, az-Zuhri and its been narrated from Ahmad that he used to fast Aashoora’ whilst travelling.

Lataa’if al-Ma’aarif, Pg. 61
