Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q480: The questioner Abu Rayan from Jeddah Province asks: What is the guidance of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding fasting in the month of Allah, Muharram?
A480: It is recommended to fast in the month of Muharram. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
The most excellent fast after Ramadan is God's month. al-Muharramأفضل الصيام بعد رمضان شهر الله المحرم
Sahih Muslim 1163a
. The most emphasized days are the ninth and the tenth, the day of 'Ashura, the tenth day. Fasting the day before it, or fasting the day after it, is a confirmed sunnah (recommended practice) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed and commanded. If one fasts most of the month, that is better.
