[Machine] Al-Qa'nabi narrated from Malik that Bakr bin Sahl narrated from Abdullah bin Yusuf that I (Malik) narrated from Abu Yazid al-Qaratisi that Abdullah bin Abd al-Hakam narrated from Ibn Shihab, from Humeid bin Abdul Rahman, that he heard Muawiyah on the day of Ashura during the year of Hajj, while he was on the pulpit, saying, "O people of Madinah, where are your scholars? I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Indeed, this day is the day of Ashura and it is not obligatory upon you to fast, and I am fasting. So whoever wants to fast may fast, and whoever wants to break his fast may break it.'"
