Reminder to all and myself

Since sekarang nie bulan muharram, jadi kita akan berjumpa dengan hari Ashura iaitu hari Allah menyelamatkan Bani Israil dari musuh mereka seperti yang dalam hadith berikut:
Ibn 'Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: "The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) came to Madeenah and saw the Jews fasting on the day of 'Ashura'. He said, 'What is this?' They said, 'This is a righteous day, it is the day when Allaah saved the Children of Israel from their enemies, so Musa fasted on this day.' He said, 'We have more right to Musa than you,' so he fasted on that day and commanded [the Muslims] to fast on that day." (Reported by al-Bukhaari, 1865).
Jadi insyaAllah ada reward yang lumayan untuk mereka yang berpuasa pada hari tersebut, iaitu terhapus dosa-dosa untuk satu tahun:
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "For fasting the day of 'Ashura', I hope that Allaah will accept it as expiation for the year that went before." (Reported by Muslim, 1976).
I would like to encourage rakan-rakan semua berpuasa pada hari Ashura 10 muharram dan juga 9 Muharram bagi membezakan dengan orang ahlul kitab iaitu bersamaan 6 dan 7 Januari. I know hari nie dah 6 Januari, so sesiapa yang tak sempat nak puasa hari nie boleh juga puasa pada hari esok.
p/s: sorry for the late notice for those yang nak puasa hari nie juga
