The Ten Days Of Dhul Hijjah

The Best Days of Deals are Here !!!


RasulAllāh صلى الله عليه وسلم said:
“There are no days wherein righteous actions are more beloved to Allaah than these ten days (of Dhul Hijjah).” They said: Not even jihad in the way of Allaah?
He صلى الله عليه وسلم said: “Not even jihad in the way of Allaah, except for a man who leaves out (for jihad) with his wealth and self and doesn’t return back with any of them.”
- Saheeh Bukhaari, Book of The Two Eids, Hadith #919




RasulAllāh صلى الله عليه وسلم was asked about fasting on The Day of ‘Arafah. [He, صلى الله عليه وسلم replied]: ‘Fasting on the day of ‘Arafah is an expiation of last year’s and next year’s sins.’
- Sunan Nisaa’i, 4/205 and Sunan Abu Dawud; classified by al-Albaani as saheeh in Saheeh Abi Dawud, 2/462

Please note:
  1. The Day of Arafah is the day before the day of Eid.
  2. Fasting expiates minor sins of last and next years; for major sins, repentance is required.
  3. It is not established in the Sunnah for pilgrims to fast this day.  (source).




Remember Allah much - sitting, standing, walking, lying by your side.
"…and the men and the women who remember Allaah much with their hearts and tongues – Allaah has prepared for them forgiveness and a great reward (i.e. Paradise)."
- Surah al-Ahzaab 33, Aayah 35

Keep saying:
Sub-han-Allah | Al-Hamdu-Lillah | Allahu akbar
Laa-ilaaha illallah
Allaahu akbar, Allaahu akbar, la ilaaha ill-Allaah; wallaahu akbar Allahu akbar wa Lillaahi’l-hamd
  1. About saying takbeer (Allahu akbar) after each Salaah, refer here.
  2. Write the above adhkaar, stick them in your workplace and inside home.




RasulAllāh صلى الله عليه وسلم said: “When any one of you intending to sacrifice the animal enters in the month (of Dhul-Hijjah) he should not get his hair or nails touched (cut/trimmed)”.
- Saheeh Muslim, The Book of Sacrifices, Hadith #146

What about family members, are they allowed to cut hair or nails? Know it here.


  1. Perform Hajj: Rasool Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم is reported to have said: "An accepted Hajj brings no less a reward than Jannah".
  2. Those not going to Hajj should gain the Love of Allah during these special days by worshipping Allaah, praying (salaat), reading Qur`an, remembering Allaah, making supplication (du‘aa), giving charity, honouring his parents, upholding the ties of kinship, enjoining what is good and forbidding what is evil and so on.
