He said, “What is this?” They said, “This is a good day and the day when Allah saved Bani Israel from their enemy (Peace be upon him) (Firaun) and (Prophet) Moosa (Peace fasted on this day.” Prophet Muhammad (Peace be be upon him) said, “We are closer to Moosa upon him) than you.” So the Prophet fasted on this day and commanded the people to fast. 4
