💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 If you were able to fast the noble month of Ramadan, you have the ability to fast the first nine days of Dhul-Hijjah to be closer to Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala, earn more rewards and join those who enter Ar-Rayyaan, a special gate in Jannah that is reserved for those who loved fasting regularly for Allah's sake.

📖 Ibn 'Abbas RadhiAllahu 'anhuma narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "No good deeds are better than what is done in these first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah." Some companions of the Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, “Not even jihad (striving) in the way of Allah?” The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Not even jihad in the way of Allah, except for a man who goes out with his life and wealth at risk and he returns with nothing."

📖 Jabir RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "No days are better to Allah than the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah." A man said, “O Messenger of Allah, are they better or time spent for striving in the way of Allah?” The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, “They are better than time spent waging jihad in the way of Allah. No day is better to Allah than the day of 'Arafah. Allah descends to the lowest heaven and He boasts to the inhabitants of the heavens about the inhabitants of the earth, saying: 'Look at My servants, appearing disheveled and dusty. They came from every mountain pass hoping for My Mercy. They do not see My punishment, yet they do not see that on no day are more saved from Hellfire than the day of 'Arafah.'”
