Days in DhulHijah
[[--1st Outing--]]------------------
بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم
Listen carefully, dear Muslim. We are about to start one of the biggest golden opportunities of the whole year. Yes, the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah are almost here – just a few days away, if Allah wills.
Why are these days so special?
Because Allah (swt) Himself speaks about them in the Quran, and His Prophet (peace be upon him) told us they are the best days for good deeds.
Every single day Allah (swt) gives you is a chance to come closer to Him. But these ten days? They are extra special. Yes. They are like a gift wrapped in huge rewards.
My People,
Think about Ramadan. Maybe you feel you didn't do your best. Maybe you missed some chances. Don't cry over that now. Allah (swt) is so merciful that He gives you these ten days to make up for any shortcomings. This is your second chance! Grab it with both hands.
But remember:
Doing wrong in these days – is much worse than doing the same wrong in other months. So guard your tongue. Guard your hands. Don't let these blessed days come and go while you waste them on sin.
Now,
How do we grab all the goodies? Here is one of the powerful practices you can do:
*Pray at night, and fast during the day.*
It's been two months since the last ten nights of Ramadan. You might have missed that beautiful goodies, or high feeling of missing the night of Lailatul-qadar. But did you know? The Prophet (peace be upon him) said that doing good deeds in these ten days is more loved by Allah (swt) than any other days. And some scholars say that praying at night in the first ten nights of Dhul-Hijjah is somehow like praying on Laylat al-Qadr!
Can you imagine that?
A night like Laylat al-Qadr – just by waking up before Fajr prayer time and crying to Allah (Tahajjud time). Yes!
So wake up for Tahajjud. Make it a habit from tonight. Ask Allah (swt) for everything you need. And if you are able, fast all ten days. If can't, then, fast few days. And when you give up food, drink, and sleep just for Allah, you are truly winning the treasure of these days.
Remember:
These ten days will come and go – just like your own days of life are passing. Don't watch them fly away empty-handed.
Start today. Make your intention. Pray at night. Fast in the day. Do good to everyone. Beg Allah (swt) for forgiveness.
This is your moment. Don't lose it. Grab every goodie now before it's too late!
