Chapter 63 | Fasting on Memorable Days

4ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ يُوسُفَ بْنِ السُّخْتِ عَنْ حَمْدَانَ بْنِ النَّضْرِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الله الصَّيْقَلِ قَالَ خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ يَعْنِي الرِّضَا (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) فِي يَوْمِ خَمْسَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ مِنْ ذِي الْقَعْدَةِ فَقَالَ صُومُوا فَإِنِّي أَصْبَحْتُ صَائِماً قُلْنَا جُعِلْنَا فِدَاكَ أَيُّ يَوْمٍ هُوَ فَقَالَ يَوْمٌ نُشِرَتْ فِيهِ الرَّحْمَةُ وَدُحِيَتْ فِيهِ الأَرْضُ وَنُصِبَتْ فِيهِ الْكَعْبَةُ وَهَبَطَ فِيهِ آدَمُ ع.

4. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Yusuf al-Sukht from Hamdan ibn al-Nadr from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd Allah al-Sayqal who has said the following: “Abu al-Hassan, meaning al-Rida , once came out to us on the twenty-fifth day of the month of Dhul Qa’dah and said, ‘Fast, for today I have awoken while fasting.’ We then said, ‘May we be sacrificed for you, which day is it?’ He replied, ‘It is the day during which the mercy (of Allah) was spread, the earth was extended, al-Ka‘bah was placed in it, and Adam descended therein.’”
