Is it Sunnah for one to spend on his family on the Day of Aashura?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Jamia Binoria

Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmathullahi Wa Barakaathuhu!

I came to know that it is Sunnah for one to spend on his family on the Day of Aashura. My question/confusion is when the time of Aashura starts? After the Sun sets on 9th of Muharram & till the Sun sets on 10th? Should we perform the Aamaal of spending on our families during this time? Will it be counted if we spend lot for the dinner/night meals on 10th of Muharram which actually becomes 11th as soon as the Sun sets? Please clarify. Jazakallahu Khaira. Wassalam

The Day of Aashura remains from the Sunset of 9th of Muharram to the Sunset of 10th Muharram. The night of 11th Muharram is not included in it.

Allah knows best.
