Preparing for the Best Ten Days

Preparing for the Best Ten Days

If you are not able to perform Hajj, you can still share in its reward. Spend in charity, turn your heart to Allah, and walk often to places of good—especially for Fajr prayer. 

The Prophet ﷺ said: “Give glad tidings of complete light on the Day of Judgment to those who walk to the masjid in the darkness.”

Such light will accompany those with the Prophet ﷺ on the Day when Allah says: “O you who have believed, repent to Allah with sincere repentance. Perhaps your Lord will remove from you your misdeeds and admit you into gardens beneath which rivers flow [on] the Day when Allah will not disgrace the Prophet and those who believed with him. Their light will proceed before them and on their right; they will say, “Our Lord, perfect for us our light and forgive us. Indeed, You are over all things competent.” (Qur’an, At-Tahrim 66:8)

Worship Allah between Maghrib and Isha, and from Fajr until sunrise. Attend congregational prayer and gatherings of knowledge. The Prophet ﷺ said: “Whoever goes to the masjid intending to learn or teach good has the reward of a complete Hajj.”

Just as the pilgrims say “Labbayk,” respond to Allah’s call in your daily life. Pray to be spiritually present with them. Many hearts, even from afar, receive the gifts of ‘Arafah and Mina through sincerity and truthfulness with Allah.
