The first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah are among the most sacred times in the Islamic year — days filled with mercy, forgiveness, and multiplied reward.
Every act of worship — prayer, fasting, charity, or remembrance — carries the potential to elevate your soul and draw you nearer to Allah like no other time.
Verse:
وَالْفَجْرِ • وَلَيَالٍ عَشْرٍ
“By the dawn, and by the ten nights.” (Surah Al-Fajr 1–2)
These are the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah, which Allah swore by — showing their immense value and virtue among all times of the year.

“There are no days in which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allah than these ten days.”
(Sahih al-Bukhari)
Ibn Hajar explains that these days combine the best forms of worship: prayer, fasting, charity, and Hajj — making them more beloved to Allah than even the last ten nights of Ramadan in terms of deeds.
Every prayer, charity, fast, or good word in these days carries multiplied reward.
The key is consistency — fill your days with dhikr, kindness, and acts of sincerity, and let your heart witness the power of the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah.
✅ Fast as much as you can — especially on the Day of Arafah.
✅ Increase in Dhikr: say “SubhanAllah”, “Alhamdulillah”, “Allahu Akbar”.
✅ Give Charity and reconnect with loved ones.
✅ Reflect & Make sincere Du‘a.
Even small actions in these ten days carry tremendous blessings.
The Sunnah of Takbeer:
Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, La ilaha illa Allah, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar wa Lillahil Hamd.
Recite it after prayers, at home, and wherever your heart remembers Allah — let the takbeer fill your days with gratitude and light.
