According to authentic Hadith mentioned in Sunan Abu Dawood , the Jews of Madina used to fast on the 10th Muharram because they said it was on this day that Prophet Moses peace be upon him and the Children of Israel crossed the Red Sea miraculously and Pharaoh was drowned.
Prophet Muhammad recommended Muslims to fast the 10th, and preferably also the ninth, of Muharram to celebrate this occasion together with Jews in recognition and thankfulness of Muslims to God for His support to prophet Moses in saving him and the Jews from the tyranny of the Pharaoh. This proves solidarity of Muslims to the righteous Jews (as citizens of the same city and same State) and proves the universality of Islam religion. It proves also that Muslims have faith in all God prophets and that Islam calls for kindness and peacefulness in dealing with people of other religions.
