Denying the hadiths regarding the virtue of fasting on the Day of 'Arafah and the Day of 'Ashura

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: In these days, some pretenders to knowledge have emerged who deny the hadiths regarding the virtue of fasting on the Day of 'Arafah for one who is not performing Hajj, and the virtue of fasting on the Day of 'Ashura. They say that these hadiths are not established.

Answer:
Do not pay attention to these people; do not pay attention to them. Do not look at their statements, because they deny things that are established in the evidence.
