*Don't forget 8 deeds in Dhul Hijjah*
Regarding the first ten days of Dhu’l-Hijjah, Prophet (ﷺ) said:
*"There are no days in which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allaah than these ten days."*
The people asked,
*"Not even jihaad for the sake of Allaah?"*
He said, "Not even jihaad for the sake of Allaah, except in the case of a man who went out to fight giving himself and his wealth up for the cause, and came back with nothing."
(Bukhaari, 2/457)
👉What can we do during these days:
*1. Fasting:*
One of the best deed we can do is fasting the first nine days of Dhul-Hijjah, because fasting is one of the best of deeds.
👉In a hadith qudsi Allaah says:
"All the deeds of the son of Adam are for him, except for fasting, which is for Me and I am the One Who will reward him for it." (Bukhaari, 1805)
👉The Prophet (ﷺ) said:
*“Fasting the day of `Arafah expiates the sins of two years: the past one and the coming one.”* [Muslim]
👉Allah almighty says,
"This day I have perfected for you your religion and completed My favour upon you and have approved for you Islam as religion."
(Surah al Maa'idah 5:3)
👉The day of Arafah is on 9th of Dhul-Hijjah. That is the day before Eid.
*2. Read the Quran:*
👉Reading the Qur’an is a good deed and Allah (swt) especially loves the good deeds done in these days.
*3. Pray your 5 daily Salah:*
👉Our Prophet (ﷺ) said:
*"The first thing for which people will be brought to account on the Day of Resurrection will be their salaah(5 daily prayer)."*
Also increase your Nawafil prayer.
The best Nawafil prayer is Tahajjud.
*4. Make lots of dhikr:*
👉Prophet (ﷺ) commanded us to recite a lot of Tasbeeh, Tahmeed and Takbeer during this time.
Tahleel is to say "Laa ilaaha il-lal-laah"
Takbeer is to say "Allahu Akbar"
Tahmeed is to say "Alhamdulillaah"
Tasbeeh is to say "Subhanallaah".
👉You may also recite:
*اَللهُ اَكْبَرُ- اَللهُ اَكْبَرُ-لآاِلَهَ اِلاَّاللهٌ وَاللهُ اَكْبَرُاَللهُ اَكْبَرُ وَِللهِ الْحَمْدُ*
Allaahu akbar, Allaahu akbar, laa ilaaha ill-Allaah, wa Allaahu akbar, Allaahu akbar, wa Lillaah il-hamd.
(Allaah is Most Great, Allaah is most Great, there is no god but Allaah, Allaah is Most great, Allaah is most great, and to Allaah be praise).
👉Recite it loudly in the mosque, the home, the street and every place where it is permitted to remember Allaah and mention His name out loud, as an act of worship.
👉Men should recite these phrases out loud, and women should recite them quietly.
*5. Seek forgiveness from Almighty Allah:*
Use these blessed days to seek forgiveness for all our wrongdoings.
👉The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, *"Sometimes I perceive a veil over my heart, and I supplicate Allah for forgiveness a hundred times in a day."* (Sahih Muslim)
👉The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"The most superior way of asking for forgiveness from Allah is:
*Allahumma anta Rabbi la ilaha illa anta, Khalaqtani wa ana `Abduka, wa ana `ala `ahdika wa wa`dika mastata`tu, A`udhu bika min Sharri ma sana`tu, abu'u Laka bini`matika `alaiya, wa abu'u laka bidhanbi faghfir lee fa innahu la yaghfiru adhdhunuba illa anta."*
اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ رَبِّي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ خَلَقْتَنِي وَأَنَا عَبْدُكَ وَأَنَا عَلَى عَهْدِكَ وَوَعْدِكَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا صَنَعْتُ أَبُوءُ لَكَ بِنِعْمَتِكَ عَلَيَّ وَأَبُوءُ لَكَ بِذَنْبِي فَاغْفِرْ لِي فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ
Meaning: O Allah, You are my Lord. There is no god besides You. You created me and I am Your servant, following your covenant and [my] promise to you as much as I can. I seek refuge in You from the evil that I have done. Before You I acknowledge Your blessings bestowed upon me and I confess my sins to You. So forgive me, for surely no one can forgive sins except You.
The Prophet (ﷺ) added.
*"If somebody recites it during the day with firm faith in it, and dies on the same day before the evening, he will be from the people of Paradise; and if somebody recites it at night with firm faith in it, and dies before the morning, he will be from the people of Paradise."*
Bukhari (6306)

*6. Give in charity*
Give in charity in these blessed days, as much as you can.
*7. Sacrifice:*
One of the good deeds that will bring a person closer to Allaah during these ten days is offering a sacrifice, by choosing a high-quality animal and fattening it.
👉Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said,
"When you see the new moon of Dhu’l-Hijjah, and one of you wants to offer a sacrifice, let him refrain from (removing anything) from his hair or nails.”
(Muslim, 1977)
*8. Stay away from Sins:*
May Almighty Allah guide us to fulfill His commands and keep us away from committing all kinds of sins whether major or minor! Ameen
👉Other Good deeds:
Making supplication (du’aa’), honouring parents, upholding the ties of kinship, enjoining what is good and forbidding what is evil, and other good deeds and acts of worship.
