[AI] Feed, for this is a day that used to be fasted before Ramadan came down. Then Ramadan came, so this day was abandoned.
«اطْعَمْ إِنَّ هَذَا يَوْمٌ كَانَ يُصَامُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَنْزِلَ رَمَضَانُ فَنَزَلَ رَمَضَانُ فَتُرِكَ هَذَا الْيَوْمُ»
Abu Abd al-Rahman, it is the day of 'Ashura (and you are eating). Upon this he said: Fast was observed on (this day) before the (fasting) in Ramadan was made obligatory, but when it was made obligatory, (fasting on the day of 'Ashura) was abandoned. So if you are not fasting, then take food.
دَخَلَ الأَشْعَثُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ عَلَى ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ وَهُوَ يَأْكُلُ يَوْمَ عَاشُورَاءَ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ إِنَّ الْيَوْمَ يَوْمُ عَاشُورَاءَ فَقَالَ قَدْ كَانَ يُصَامُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَنْزِلَ رَمَضَانُ فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ رَمَضَانُ تُرِكَ فَإِنْ كُنْتَ مُفْطِرًا فَاطْعَمْ
[AI] "Do you know the significance of the day of Ashura? Indeed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to observe fasting on it before the month of Ramadan was made obligatory. However, when Ramadan was decreed as obligatory, the fasting of Ashura was abandoned."
وَتَدْرِي مَا يَوْمُ عَاشُورَاءَ؟ إِنَّمَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَصُومُهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَنْزِلَ رَمَضَانُ فَلَمَّا أُنْزِلَ رَمَضَانُ تُرِكَ
al-Ashath b. Qays entered upon him on the day of Ashura while he was eating lunch. He said, “Come and eat lunch.” He said, “Is today not the day of Ashura?” He replied, “Do you know what the day of Ashura is? The day of Ashura is only a day that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to fast before Ramadan was revealed; when Ramadan was revealed, he left it.”
أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ الْأَشْعَثُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ فِي يَوْمِ عَاشُورَاءَ وَهُو يَتَغَدَّى فَقَالَ ادْنُ إِلَى الْغَدَاءِ فَقَالَ أَلَيْسَ الْيَوْمُ يَوْمَ عَاشُورَاءَ ؟ فَقَالَ هَلْ تَدْرِي مَا يَوْمُ عَاشُورَاءَ ؟ إِنَّمَا يَوْمُ عَاشُورَاءَ يَوْمُ كَانَ يَصُومُهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَنْزِلَ رَمَضَانَ فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ رَمَضَانُ تَرَكَ
[AI] "A day that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to fast before the arrival of Ramadan, but when Ramadan arrived, he abandoned it."
«يَوْمٌ كَانَ يَصُومُهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَنْزِلَ رَمَضَانُ فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ رَمَضَانُ تَرَكَهُ»

"عَنِ ابنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: عَاشُورَاءُ يَوْمٌ كُنَّا نَصُومُهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَنْزِلَ رَمَضَانُ فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ رَمَضَانُ صُمْنَاهُ وَتَركْنَا مَا سِوَاهُ".
