10 Reminders for Dhul-Hijjah:
Alhamdulillah, we are in the blessed first 10 days of Dhul-Hijjah.
The Prophet (PBUH) said, "There is no deed that is better in the sight of Allah or more greatly rewarded than a good deed done in the (first) ten days of Al-Adha". It was asked, "Not even Jihad for the sake of Allah?" The Prophet (PBUH) replied, "Not even Jihad for the sake of Allah, unless a man goes out himself for Jihad taking his wealth with him and does not come back with anything." Narrated by Al-Bukhari
1. Perform Hajj (Pilgrimage)
2. Fast all nine days and especially on the 'Day of Arafah'
The Prophet peace be up on him, pbuh used to fast on the ninth day of Dhul-Hijja and he said: "Fasting the Day of 'Arafah (ninth Dhul-Hijja) is an expiation for (all the sins of) the previous year and expiation for (all the sins of) the coming year." (Muslim)
3. Perform Dhikr and Takbeer
The Prophet peace be up on him, pbuh said: "There are no days on which good deeds are greater or more beloved to Allah than on these ten days, so recite much Tahleel (saying Laa ilaaha ill-Allah), Takbeer (saying Allahu Akbar) and Tahmeed (saying Alhamdu Lillaah)." (Ahmad -Saheeh)
