10 things that a Muslim should do on the first 10 days of Zul Hijjah
Although this article will concentrate on the first 10 days of Zul Hijjah, the entire month is very significant to Muslims.
Zul Hijjah, the 12th (and final) month of the Islamic calendar, is when the Hajj is carried out. It is one of the five Islamic pilgrimages, and millions of Muslims carry out the pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia each year.
Although this article will concentrate on the first 10 days of Zul Hijjah, the entire month is very significant to Muslims.
We learned more from Sheikh Tukur Al-Mannar in Kaduna, northern Nigeria:
The first 10 days of Zul Hijjah are a sign from God.
"Allah Almighty has sworn by my days in the first verses of Suratul Fajr," Sheikh Al-Mannar remarked.
He did this to demonstrate to us the benefits of the modern day, their worth, and our standing before God.
The instructor also cited a Hadith from the Prophet SAW that stated: "There is no job in the sight of God (SWT) that is more gratifying than the work that a servant will undertake in the first 10 days of Zul Hijjah.
The Companions then questioned him, "Even if it is jihad for God's sake?" In response, the Prophet SAW said, "Even if it is because of jihad, unless a person goes out for jihad with all his wealth and returns home with nothing." Bukhari narrated this hadith.
Muslims are urged to engage in the following types of acts of worship in today's society, according to Sheikh Al-Mannar:
One) Fasting
According to the religious instructor who spoke with TRT Afrika, Muslims are supposed to fast frequently.
Even if a Muslim does not have the chance to fast every day, according to him, it is still beneficial to fast on the ninth of the month, which is the day of Arfah, especially if that person does not have the chance to perform the Hajj.
Sheikh Al-Mannar stated, "The Messenger of God (PBUH) declared that fasting on the day of Arfah erases the sins of two years, i.e., the previous year and the future year.
2. A bed mate
After breaking the fast, the teacher advised that during the first 10 days of Zul Hajj, it is very beneficial to perform night prayers often.
3. Submit numerous requests
It is desired that a servant confess his sins and ask his Lord for forgiveness. It's important for a servant to quit sinning because he follows instructions. And when he is instructed to halt, he should stop there, the teacher said.
4. How often you read the Al-Qur'an
If a servant is compelled to repeat the Qur'an throughout the day, or what he recited, according to Sheikh Al-Mannar.
5. Generous donations
It is desired for a servant to take a more active role in carrying out good deeds like philanthropy and aiding others.
According to the teacher, it is desired to donate food, clothing, and money for the underprivileged in order for them to have enough on the day of Eid al-Adha.
6. Correspondence and friendship
A Muslim should preserve friendships with all of his family members, including parents, siblings, and friends, according to the teacher.
Sheikh Al-Mannar remarked, "If a person is not in the mood to visit, he might phone to express friendship and greet them.
7. Charm
It is also advised for individuals who have received instruction from God Almighty to perform amulets. According to the religious instructor who spoke with TRT Afrika, "It is not desirable for anyone who is going to perform amulets to shave his nails and body hair during these 10 days."
8. Regularly pray
According to the teacher, it is beneficial that during the first 10 days of Zul Hajji, a servant frequently prays for his parents, his family, his leaders, the nation he lives in, and all Muslims worldwide.
9. Hajj
Those with the character are encouraged to travel to Saudi Arabia to lighten the load.
10. Taking part in the Eid prayer
Finally, Muslims are supposed to take part in the Eid prayer, which is held on the tenth day of the month and involves two rakahs performed in congregation. Additionally, it is advisable to perform extra zikr and kabara throughout these first 10 days of Zu Hijjah.
