YOGYAKARTA Tasyrik Day is one of the special days in Islam. At that moment, a Muslim is advised to increase his pious deeds, except fasting. So, what is tasyrik day?

According to the official website of Nahdlatul Ulama University, Surayabaya, tasyrik day is three days after Eid al-Adha.

In a hadith narrated by Sunan Abu Daud, tasyrik day is also referred to as a great day.

"Indeed, the most noble day in the sight of Allah Tabaraka wa Ta'ala is Eid al-Adha and yaumul qorr (Tasyrik Day)." (Hadits History of Abu Daud).

A more complete explanation of the tasyrik day can be seen in the following reviews.

Citing the website of the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI), basically the tasyrik day is three days after Eid al-Adha, namely 11th, 12th, and 13th Dzulhijjah.

The word 'tasyrik' comes from Arabic which shows one time, namely'syarraqa', which means 'Sun rises' or 'dried something'. In addition, the tasyriq can also be interpreted as facing the East Rrah, the direction from which the sun rises.

Syekh Ibnu Manzur (711 H) in his work Lisan Al-Arab, explained that the scholars had different opinions about the reasons for the Tasyrik name. There are two main opinions that state as follows:

First, three days after Eid al-Adha is called a tasyrik day because it is the time when Muslims dry their sacrificial meat to make fire. This opinion is based on practices during the time of the Prophet SAW, where there is no cooling technology such as refrigerators.

At that time, people guarded the meat by drying it for a long time. The goal is to preserve the sacrificial meat so that it can be used as food reserves for a long period of time.

Second, the implementation of the sacrificial ritual is carried out after the sun rises. Above, it has been agreed that on tasyrik day, every Muslim is advised to multiply pious deeds except fasting.

The prohibition of fasting on tasyrik day is because at that time it is highly recommended to enjoy various dishes and preparations from sacrificial meat. In a hadith narrated by Imam Bukhari, the Prophet SAW said:

Why don't you think about it? Let's talk about it, let's talk about it.

Meaning: 'It is not allowed to fast on Tasyrik Day except for those who do not get sacrificial animals when performing the hajj.' (HR. Bukhari).

Previously, it was mentioned that tasyrik day was three days after Eid al-Adha which was celebrated on 10 Dzulhijjah. According to the initial Dzulhijjah trial of the Ministry of Religion, 1 Dzulhijjah falls on June 8, 2024.

That way, the 11-13 dzulhijjah or tasyrik day falls on June 18-20, 2024. Here are the details of the 2024 tasyrik day schedule:
