The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “There are no days on which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allah than these ten days.” They said: “Not even jihad for the sake of Allah?” He said: “Not even jihad for the sake of Allah, unless a man goes out himself for jihad taking his wealth with him and does not come back with anything.” [Bukhari] It is narrated on the authority of Abu Hurairah (May Allah be well pleased with him) and he narrates from the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) that He said: “The worship of the first 10 nights of Dhul Hijjah is more liked by Allah Most High than the worship of other days. Fasting for one day in this month has the reward of fasting for the whole year and worship of one night in Dhul Hijjah has the reward of standing up in worship for the whole year.” [Jame’ Tirmidhi, Vol. 1, Pg No. 158, Hadith No: 763]
