Most Muslims very well know the blessings of the nights of Ramadan, especially the last ten nights. However, not everyone knows that the first ten days of the last month of the Islamic month, Dhul Hijjah, are equally packed with blessings.
Allah has provided Muslims numerous opportunities throughout the year to renew their faith and to encourage them towards acts of goodness by specifying such special days. So, we have another such opportunity that we shouldn’t let pass by just like any other period in time.
Allah says in the Quran in Surah Al-Fajr:

“By the dawn; By the 10 nights” [Surah al-Fajr 89:1-2].
Most scholars agree that these ten nights refer to the first ten nights of Dhul-Hijjah. Ibn Katheer also had validated that opinion by stating: “This is the correct opinion.” [Tafseer Ibn Katheer, 8/413]
Ibn ‘Abbas reports that the Messenger of Allah (sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam) said,
“No good deeds done on other days are superior to those done on these days [meaning the ten days of Dhul-Hijjah].”
Among the deeds recommended during those ten days are observing voluntary fasting, offering animal sacrifices (lamb, goat, etc.), sincere repentance, recitation of the Quran, staying up the night and finally praying the Eid prayers on the tenth day of Dhul Hijjah.
Hafsah reported, “There are five things that the Messenger (saws) never abandoned: fasting the day of Ashura in the month of Muharram, fasting the [first] 10 [days of Dhul-Hijjah], fasting 3 days of every month and praying two rak’aah before the dawn prayer.” [Related by Ahmad and an-Nasa’i]

Abu Hurairah relates that the Messenger of Allah (saws) said, “There are no days more loved to Allah for you to worship Him therein than the ten days of Dhul Hijja. Fasting any day during it is equivalent to fasting one year and to offer salatul tahajjud (late-night prayer) during one of its nights is like performing the late night prayer on the night of power. [i.e., Lailatul Qadr].” [Related by at-Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah, and al-Baihaqi]
The Prophet (SAWS) commanded us to recite a lot of Tasbeeh (“Subhan-Allah”), Tahmeed (“Al-hamdu Lillaah”) and Takbeer (“Allaahu akbar”) during this time. ‘Abdullaah ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reported that the Prophet (SAWS) said: “There are no days greater in the sight of Allah and in which righteous deeds are more beloved to Him than these ten days, so during this time recite a great deal of Tahleel (“La ilaaha ill-Allah”), Takbeer and Tahmeed.” (Reported by Ahmad, 7/224; Ahmad Shaakir stated that it is saheeh). (Islam-QA.com)
For Muslims who do not attend Hajj, fasting on the day of Arafah is highly recommended. Fasting on the day of ‘Arafah is a confirmed Sunnah for those who are not performing Hajj. It was narrated from Abu Qataadah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was asked about fasting on the day of ‘Arafah and he said: “It expiates for the past and coming years.” Narrated by Muslim (1162). According to another report: “I ask Allah that it may expiate for (the sins of) the year that comes before it and the year that comes after it.”
Ibn Qudaamah (may Allah have mercy on him) said in al-Mughni (4/443), which is a Hanbali book:
It is a great and noble day, and a blessed festival which is of great virtue. It is narrated in saheeh reports from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that fasting it is expiation for two years. End quote.
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) was asked: What is the ruling on fasting the day of ‘Arafah for non-pilgrims and pilgrims?
He replied: Fasting on the day of ‘Arafah for non-pilgrims is a confirmed Sunnah. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was asked about fasting on the day of ‘Arafah and he said: “I ask Allah that it may expiate for (the sins of) the year that comes before it and the year that comes after it.” According to another report he said: “It expiates for the past and coming years.”
As for the pilgrim, it is not Sunnah for him to fast on the day of ‘Arafah, because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) did not fast on the day of ‘Arafah during the Farewell Pilgrimage. In Saheeh al-Bukhaari it is narrated from Maymoonah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the people were not sure whether the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was fasting on the day of ‘Arafah, so she sent him some milk when he was standing in ‘Arafah, and he drank it whilst the people were looking on. End quote.
Majmoo’ Fataawa Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (part 20, question no. 404) [Source: islam-qa.com]
So, as Muslims we should welcome the first ten days of Dhul Hijjah with the same fervor and enthusiasm as we welcome the last ten days of Ramadan or any other blessed days in Islam. Lets make the most of it.

Aameen.
Iam a convert to Islam and i found this aricle very informative. I converted in December 2004, if I remember correctly the day of ashurah was around the 10 january in 2005 ( in the netherlands) This was my first experience of fasting though I didnt know at the time exactly why i was fasting. I love your articles they fill in many blanks for me, living in the netherlands and not knowing many practising muslims makes it more difficult for me to learn, also there are not many English language books available but Alhamdulilah this site is a great help. I first became to know about Iqra when i was in Morocco on holidays and i saw there was an English language Iqra channel which I enjoyed very much, unfortunatly we dont have that in the netherlands.
Hearty Congratulations on converting to Islam. May Allah Almighty bless you, guide you to the path of righteousness and strengthen your faith. Ameen
MayAllah reward your “intentions” and doubly so your actual actions. I have learned when I am faithful unto Allah (Subhanna Wa Taila); Allah is faithful unto ME.
I will make many dua’s for you.
Mashallah what a beautiful article! Inshallah all muslims will follow what Allah has commanded and
the Prophet(saw)used to do. Rebecca and Ayesha_Imane i’m really
happy that both of you are converts, thank Allah (all the time)for
guiding you to the right path. There are many islamic websites that are worth visiting
like http://www.islamway.com, askimam.com, islamonline.com, islamtomorrow.com,
hilalplaza.com, searchtruth.com, whyislam.org, islam4ever.net,
islamicity.com
May Allah bless and guide you always, and let you enter paradise by His mercy.
Ameen (Wajamee3 ilmuslimeen (And the rest of the muslims)).
Alhamdulillah! This BEAUTIFUL article “The First Ten Days & Night Of
Dhul-Hijjah” is one among the Precious Jewels of islam. I appriciate the efforts taken by Iqra on publishing such beautiful and informative subjects.

May He guide our action and and bless us with happiness and understanding!

I found this article very useful, informative, and interesting to be read by every Muslim who can read in English. My all best wishes for the author.
Asselamu Alykum WW
Jezakumullah for the reminder. We sure need to use the opportunity given to us. Allah is giving us ways to repent and do good deeds. His merci is so great that he wants us to return to Him. Our sins of this year and the next will be forgiven if we fast on the 9th day. Let’s do something good for ourselves before this lunar year ends.
asalamualaikum, to all muslim brothers and sisters round the globe this is an opportunity for us to win
the pleasure of our sustainer the most merciful and to make dua for the muslim ummah to unite so that we
can show the rest of the world the beauty of islam so that they can accept this wonderful religion which
will give anyone who accepts it and acts upon its orders success in this world and the hereafter.Just imagine
4.5 billion people when they die now they go to hellfire for eternity!muslims indulge in sins gambling drinnking
alchol,music etc.whom when they die without making touba will transit into that horrible place hell.so let
the ummah rise at night and set tears and spend their days of this ten blessed days of dhul-hijja in fasting
to invoke ALLAH’S mercy on the whole ummah at large.MAY ALLAH WITH HIS INFINITE MERCY GIVE THE UMMAT HEDAYYA
AMEN!

It is mustahib to cut yur nails and hairs before start of these 10 days(if u intend to do qurbani). Fasting on 9dhilhuujjah has special significance(it removes sins of last 01year and coming year). During these days visit sick people and ask about their health, give charity, feed someone, clothe someone, and offer voluntary prayers.
Thank you very much for this information. I am a muslim convert and I have to admit I still
dont know a lot of things about Islam, but I am very wiling to learn. I am very happy I came

Dear Gina:
Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullah Wa Barakatuhu,
Every human being is born upon “Nature” and nature is “ISLAM”. So, whoever embaraces Islam, we say that he or she has reverted back to the nature or Islam or “Deen”. Please use that you have ‘reverted’ and not ‘converted’ to Islam. Thank you and May Allah SWT Bless upon you all what you desire, Aameen!

Alhamdulillah…May ALLAh bless u for giving us these valuable information…
Assalam Alaikum Brothers
The 10 days of Dhul Hajja massage given to us is excellent information regarding the first 10 days of dhull hajja, and i think every muslim must know this as it is equal to last 10 days of Ramazan, if a muslim missed last 10 days of ramazan he can get same benifits and forgiveness from these days days. Alhamdulillah i try my best to get benifits of these days.
Its really amazing and nice to know how these holy days be spent in out lives.
Really a good one article.
I would definitely try to have atleast 5 fastings during these days.
Assalamualaikum to all brothers and sisters,
A great and very informative article not only for those who newly convert but to born muslim like me as well.
JazakAllah
I have watched the Eid celebrations after Ramadaan on Islam TV and have prayed the prayer for conversion to Islam, but I was alone. In my heart I believe I have accepted the faith, but I am not sure if it is recognized in Islam if it was not done in the presence of an Imaam or another Muslim. I have made a voice recording of it as a testimony to myself. Please assist me. I have also not changed my name and want to know if it is compulsory in Islam for me to do so.
Alhamdullihah! this mail on the lst ten days of Dhul Hijja is so inspiring , i have never come accross the last sermon of the prophet since i have been reading islamic book(YEAR 2002) .I was so moved , my whole body was moved with the sermon above from the prophet , you know talking to the future and i thank Allah (SWT) that i am amongst those who have seen and oppurtuned to read the message .May Allah reward the entire team of Iqra sense .
Assalaamu alaikum,
your publishing is really very informative. Being a Muslim, even i dont know much about the 1st 10 days of Dhul Hijj.
May Allah reward you the best in this life & in the Hereafter.
Jazaakallah,
May Allah subhana wataala bless all brethern for the good deed observed on these days. Amen,
It is gratifying to note that these reminders on the first 10 days of the Dhul-Hijjah month should awaken the spirits of those obedient followers of Islam to perform with greater spirits.
I have already started offering the Thahajud prayer at 2.15 am this morning and shall continue to do it as and when I woke up after keeping niyyat.
May Almighty Pour His Choicest Blessings upon IQRA for the wonderful contributions and guidance made towards the path of Islam.
Alhamdulillah that Islam is what Allah directed me to. This website is really encouraging and informative by making muslims all over the world know more about islam and its teachings. This is a kind of global Da’wah likewich all Muslims should promote and propergate most especially, to the newly converted muslims.
It is our duty to clean our religion from the awful paint used by the enemies of peace (Islam) to distract people from the only way of salvation with their propaganda that Islam and muslims are the terrorists, fundamentalists, fanatics and the likes.
This is one of the channels to do so.
Thanks to you brotheren, May almighty Allah reword you abundantly. Ameen!
Islam is about reminder. For over 1400 years, the same message(s) is(are) passed are often negleted. The first revelation to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was to “Read in the name of the your Lord”. Continue with the next four verses and you will see why we are using this medium. Islam predicted the use of technology to improve human knowledge over 1400 years ago. For those who have taken it upon themselves to develop this websites to educate humanity, we pray that the Almighty Allah will reward them abundantly.
maashallah…very nice article…..i would try to take fasting these days…..
Assalam alaikum….
Though i was born as a muslim even my great grand parents were muslims i have never heard of this great information…
Thank you this is quite informative May Allah accept our prayers all now and forever…
Assalamo-alaikum
Ma`asha-Allah……..Alhamdulillah…May ALLAh bless u for giving us these valuable information…
Just to add something also..
1-We need to do alot of DHIKR ALLAH = i.e.recite more often the Tahleel (Laa llaaha Illallah), Takbeer (Allahu Akbar), Tahmeed (Alhamdulillah).
2-For those who wish to sacrifice an animal it`s sunna (in support to those who are on Haj) to refrain from cutting or shaving his/her hair or clipping his/her nails until after one has slaughtered his/her sacrificial animal.
May Allah BLESS US ALL…AMEEN
masha Allah…Alhamdullilah thank you so much for the information. it is really helpful….i will help to spread the message….may Allah reward you for your efforts of spreading the words of the Almighty Allah……..its a very helpfull information……thx…..
Jazakallahu khairan to all the contributors to this site, mostly happily to my brothers n sisters who have discovered the truth of yester-years, today, and forever……Islam. May Allah (SWA) continue to guide us in the rightpath n reward us wt jannat fildaus.(ameen).
I am so grateful that i am in Islam. It is truely said that Islam is peace. I agree 100% on that, as Islam is the only religion of Allah (SA), and there is a statement authenticaly said that, When Allah love His servant, He will give fully understanding of the religion. Converts or born Muslim, it is our obligation to renew our faith,ask Allah’s mercy and blessings, as there will be NO other or no one who can help us through this earthly world except Allah. Lets walk on straight path, and that is Islam. Alhamdullellah, i have performed Hajj many times, and May Allah accepts my repentace and give me space in Paradise (Al Fardous)
Assalamualaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh
Ameen, we ask Allah for Al-Firdaus. Definitely he is extremely forgiving and extremely appreciative.
Indeed, it is highly informative for both Muslims and Non-Muslim.
On one hand it shall refresh the Memory of Muslims and on the other it shall guide the Non-Muslims to Sirat-e-Mustaqeem.
Allah SWT provided me ample occassions to perform Umrah and Hajj twice. Al-Hamdo-lillah. Still at 73, I wish to visit Makkah and Madina several times as I believe, it will strengthen my belief in Islam and grow in me a Muslim in real sense.
Request all brothers and sisters to pray Allah SWT for me and all Muslims.
Thanks.

Jazakhallahu kairan to all those who take the time out to work and spread Islam in its true form.
For many reverts like us and muslims generally, sites like this go along way in helping build and our faith. It is obligatory upon every muslim to spread Islam as the last teaching of the Rasul was to spread Islam all over “All those who listen to me shall pass on my words to others and those to others again…..” Thus, we should in our own very different but unique ways spread Islam. The way we live with others goes a long way in inspiring other muslims lead better muslim lives and also inspire non-muslims to enter the warm fold of Islam.
Therefore, we should ask ourselves if we are living Islam or or not. If we are, Alhamdullah, we will keep improving and if we not, this is a chance to. The first 10 days of Dhulhijjah gives us another special opportunity to enter that special one-one relationship with Allah.
May Allah make it easy for us all and accept our Ibadah. Ameen.
i must say that i am always impressed about your articles, this is because they target specific events within the islamic calender and than provide appropriate education and information relevant to the guidance of the umma, i pray that Allah richly reward us all.
Wa’alaikum mus salaam
Subahaan Allah, very informative and even more inspiring. This is what reminding each other is all about. It also educates me on somethings I am not even aware of. May Allah (swt) lavish His blessings and continued guidance on you. May He (swt) richly reward your efforts, Ameen.
Jazakallah khayran for this reminder. We all need to be reminded of Allah’s unending Mercy and Kindness. Because He loves us,He warns us to beware of Him so that we will not transgress,but,at the same time, He showers us with His Bounty and gives us hope of His Forgiveness.
The greatest gift I have ever experienced is Allah’s guiding me to Islam’s Light.
aslaamolaikum
jazaakAllahkhair thanx for the lovely article on the l10 days of dhullhajj just for reminding some of us as we tend to forget with
our busy lives. thanx for the intresting information.

Wa aleykum salam,
I love your articles, always timely. This is realy great! Jazakhalahu khayran kaziran. Masha Allah, I gotta disseminate the message. Thumbs up bretheren!
may Allah reward you deeds, this is quite informative. Thumbs up
Thank you and keep up the good work may Allah reward you in abundance
Very useful and informative. Jasaak Allahu Khairun.
Subhann Allah! I am a convert and didint know the significance of these ten days as much as this. Alhamdulillah my children are now learnong about this at school now so I can help them with their understanding .Tabarak Allah to all.
jazakumullah katheeran. your article has just boosted my iman. alhamdulillahi i am a muslim.
Thank you. First time i am getting a chance to know this hadeeth in my 39 years. Masha Allah.
Jazakallah Khair, I learnt a lot about IT and just in time to catch up the rest of the precious days of Zul Hadj. May ALLAH SWT reward you in abundance and May ALLAH SWT Bless You Always, AMEEN.
Syukran Ahhamdulillah … very informative
Thank you for this. As you know, I am Bosnian Muslim, but at my time we did not learn to read The Qur’an, so at those ten days I am learning almost very good . I am especially very proud because I can read The Holy Qur’an in ten days of this month in my age of 60!
Selam all of you!
Alhumdulillah! this is indeed very informative, but what
I found so wonderful was that so many people showed such high appreciation of this article. I lve in the holy city of Makkah
and am very lucky to make Haj every year, and to see the brotherhood of Islam in people from such diverse backgrounds, far off lands, speaking so many different languages and yet are all here for the one reason, fulfilling a requirement of their religion, answering the call from Allah, it is nothing short of beautiful! Keep up the peace and love to everyone, keep informed about religious requirements, act upon them and pass the information on, in the gentlest of manner, no ‘force-feeding’ as it were!
short reply to brother Astrid….you say you have accepted Islam, but not in the presence of an imaam or another muslim. Allah is interested in only what our intentions are, so know that Allah has accepted you, but you must make enquiries at your nearest mosque and find out what the correct way is. i shall ask a scholar and send a comment as soon as i do find out..or if any one else does know maybe they can let u know, as i can understand the frustration you must be feeling at not knowing. As far as i know, you do not HAVE to change your name, but people usually add a muslim name to their ‘given’ name in order to be recognised as a muslim,but I shall double check that also.
We shall be praying for all the umma’ on the Day of Arafaa’. may Allah bless each and everyone by guiding us all on to the right path.
Assalamualaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh
I checked it on Islam QA it isn’t necessary. Alhamdulilah Allah suffices as a witness.
For those who were unable to commence fasting on the first day of this month, do not forget to do it on the day of Arafat. It is recommended for those who are not pilgrims. May we be guided by the Almighty Allah–Ameen Summa Ameen.
Alhamdu Lilaah that i am a muslim.The article has really boosted my imam and inshaa’Allah i will put into practice all parts of it.May Allah (SWT) guide us all accept our prayers and forgive our sins.Jazaakaallah Khyran to all those that have contributed to bringing up such an article.Ameen
Alhamdu Lilaah, this is another informative article. Though, this is my first time of visiting this site.Iqrasense will among my daily visit sites now, Insha Allah

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Islam:
Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullah Wa Barakatuhu,
Every human being is born upon “Nature” and nature is “ISLAM”. So, whoever embaraces Islam, we say that he or she has reverted back to the nature or Islam or “Deen”. I would request all who “Masha’Allah” have entered Islam shoud say thaty they have ‘reverted’ back and not ‘converted’ to Islam. May Allah SWT Bless us all.

I suplicate to Allah to bless all the people of Iqrasense with al Jannatul firdausin ameen.This is a very beneficial article to both old and revert muslims alike. Thanks alot for the good work.
As Salam O Alaikum to all
Allaahu-Akbar, Allaahu-Akbar, Laa-ilaaha-illalaahu wallahu Akbar Allaahu-Akbar, walilaahil hamd.
(pls correct me if it is not correct)
Very informative and timely reminder. May Allah SWT shower his blessings to all Iqra team who post articles like this on time. Also blessings to all muslim brothers and sisters in islam. May Allah guide us and our new generation to follow straight path of Islam. Ameen. May Allah accept all our deeds and supplication here and hereafter. May Allah give courage to fast and offer special prayers in these 10 days of Dhul Hijja.
Congratulations to both our sisters for reverting to Islam and congratulations to those who were the source for it. Actually we all Muslims should have the belief that each and every child is born on Islam; later on he/she takes on the religion of his/her parents. Hence whoever turns back in repentance and gets the right path has actually reverted himself/herself.
May ALLAH accept all of us for HIS work i.e spreading the true belief and at the same time practising it. This is the ultimate purpose and mission of each one’s life. We all know the door of Prophethood has been closed but the work of Prophets(Dawaah- reviving the true faith among the believers and non-believers ) has to continue until the day of Judgement. May ALLAH have mercy on all of us for our wrongdoings, bless us with his unlimited bounties and keep all of us on Siraatul Mustaqeem.
this article is very very informative,i was green about it but now am a wear of this last ten days .May allah continue to open our brains for new things like this.Ameen
As a Muslim, this is refreshing. May Allah (SWT) reward you abundantly
I did not have the knowledge of the Ten days and nights of Dhul Hijjah’s blessings. I did the first time in Juma congregation in the Jamia mosque in my area.

Assalamu ‘alaykum all,
May Allah bless all of us especially the publishers of this wonderful article and those that shares it. May Allah reward us with the best of rewards. However I noticed the Hadith of Hafsah (ra) in which she reported about the ‘Five’ things that the Messenger of Allah (saws) never abandone. On counting the deeds, I noticed four acts, perhaps the fifth had been inadvertently ommited? Wallahu a’alam.
Assalamu Alaikum,
May Allah reward you and your team for the very informative article sent at the appropriate time. I followed many of your instructions during the first 10 days of this blessed month and have a feeling of satisfaction and joy within me.

Keeping fast from 1st till 9th,especially for those who don’t go for hajj.Asking dua on the night of Eid.
On 10th,11th,12,th ALLAH SUBHANU WATA AALA likes that we should eat nice food.[This is what I remembered read long before,if any mistake,May ALLAH SUBHANU WATA AALA forgive me Ameen.]
