The 10 Days of Dhil Hijjah

10 days of Dhul Hijjah

“There are No days in which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allaah than these 10 days.”

[Bukhaari]”

There are No days greater in the sight of Allaah (including Ramadhaan) & in which righteous deeds are more beloved to Him than these 10 days, so during this time recite a great deal of Tahleel (“La ilaaha ill-Allaah”), Takbeer (Allaahu Akbar) and Tahmeed (Al Hamdu Lil-laah).”

[Ahmad]

A Sunnah of the Prophet s.a.w: “When you see the new moon of Dhul-Hijjah, if any one of you wants to offer a sacrifice, then he should stop cutting his hair and nails until he has offered his sacrifice.” [Muslim]

A Sunnah: “The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to fast on the first 9 days of Dhul-Hijjah and the day of ‘Ashoora’, and 3 days each month – the first Monday and 2 Thursdays of the month”. [Nasaa’i, Abu Dawood]

Fasting on the Day of ‘Arafaah. He s.a.w said, “It expiates for the sins of the previous year and of the coming year.” [Muslim]

“There is no day on which Allaah frees more people from the Fire than the Day of ‘Arafaah. He comes close and expresses His pride to the angels, saying, ‘What do these people want?’” [Muslim]

Takbeer of Tashreeq:After each Fardh Salaah Recite from Fajr of 9th Dhul Hijjah until Asr of 13th

“Allaahu Akbar,Allaahu Akbar,Laa ilaaha il-lAllaahu,WAllaahu AkbarAllaahu Akbar,Wa Lil-laahil-hamd

(Allaah is the Greatest, Allaah is the Greatest, there is no god but Allah; Allah is the Greatest and to Allah be all praise),”
