Arabic text

وَ رَوَى حَنَانُ بْنُ سَدِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ صَوْمِ يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ فَقُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ إِنَّهُمْ يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّهُ يَعْدِلُ صَوْمَ سَنَةٍ قَالَ «كَانَ أَبِي عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ لاَ يَصُومُهُ» قُلْتُ وَ لِمَ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ قَالَ « يَوْمُ عَرَفَةَ يَوْمُ دُعَاءٍ وَ مَسْأَلَةٍ فَأَتَخَوَّفُ أَنْ يُضْعِفَنِي عَنِ اَلدُّعَاءِ وَ أَكْرَهُ أَنْ أَصُومَهُ وَ أَتَخَوَّفُ أَنْ يَكُونَ يَوْمُ عَرَفَةَ يَوْمَ اَلْأَضْحَى وَ لَيْسَ بِيَوْمِ صَوْمٍ.

Translation

It is narrated by Hanan ibn Sudayr from his father, who said: "I asked him about fasting on the Day of Arafah, and I said: 'May I be your ransom, they claim that fasting it equals fasting for a year.' Imam (a.s) said: 'My father (a.s) would not fast on that day.' I asked: 'Why? May I be your ransom.' Imam (a.s) said: 'The Day of Arafah is a day of supplication and asking (from Allah (swt)). I fear that fasting might weaken me from making supplications, and I dislike fasting it as I fear that the Day of Arafah may coincide with the Day of Eid al-Adha, which is not a day of fasting.'"
