حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدَةَ الضَّبِّيُّ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ غَيْلاَنَ بْنِ جَرِيرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَعْبَدٍ الزِّمَّانِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " صِيَامُ يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ إِنِّي أَحْتَسِبُ عَلَى اللَّهِ أَنْ يُكَفِّرَ السَّنَةَ الَّتِي قَبْلَهُ وَالسَّنَةَ الَّتِي بَعْدَهُ " . قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ . وَقَدِ اسْتَحَبَّ أَهْلُ الْعِلْمِ صِيَامَ يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ إِلاَّ بِعَرَفَةَ .

Qutaibah and Ahmad bin 'Abdah Ad-Dabbi narrated to us: Hammad bin Zaid narrated to us, from Ghaylan bin Jarir, from 'Abdullah bin Ma'bad Az-Zamani, from Abu Qatadah, that the Prophet said: ‘I hope Allah will expiate the sins of the year before and the year after for one who fasts on the Day of 'Arafah.’ A report on this topic is also narrated from Abu Sa'id. Abu 'Isa said: The hadith of Abu Qatadah is hasan. Scholars recommend fasting on the Day of 'Arafah, except for those at 'Arafah during pilgrimage.
