Fasting on 'Ashura: Between Wednesday and Thursday

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He also asks, saying: Do we fast on the Wednesday mentioned in the calendar, or do we fast on the Thursday if we fast on a single day?

Answer:
The safest course is to fast on both Wednesday and Thursday, because you will either coincide with the ninth and tenth, or with the tenth and eleventh. Yes.
