Spending freely upon one’s family on the day of Aashura

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: Please tell me is it true that on 10th muharram Allah Ta’ala says that “whatever his worshipper will eat by extending his meal and let many people join him” he will give growth to that stuff for a whole year?

Bismillaah

A: This is not the wording of the hadeeth. The actual hadeeth is: Abu Hurairah (radhiyallahu anhu) reports that Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) said, “Whoever spends freely upon his family on the day of Aashura Allah Ta`ala will bless him with abundant sustenance for an entire year.”

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
