THE SECOND RESEARCH....
THE TEN DAYS OF ZIL HIJJAH
Allah, the Almighty has bestowed us with great virtues that every wise and careful mind is aware of them.
The prophet, peace be upon him, said: "Do good things for all eternity. Expose yourselves to the mercy of God. God has outbursts of mercy, which He infers upon whomever He wills. And ask God to cover your SINS and to secure your fears."
Al Tabarani.
Those who failed to be forgiven during Ramadan, and were lost and deprived. There are still chances of survival, the doors of forgiveness are wide, the hope of winning is renewed, and the Hereafter paradise awaits.
Ramadan has just passed as if it is one day, not thirty days ago, and here's another gift of goodness that God Almighty gave to His worshippers who did not catch up with Ramadan. The caravan still waits for those who hurry to catch it and obtain much good. It is an invitation to compensate for the past seasons that we have missed.
Ramadan has passed, but there are gifts one day after the other.
After Ramadan there is Shawal:
Abi Ayoub, the Prophet's companion, said: "Whoever observes As-Saum (the fast) in the month of Ramadan, and also observes As-Saum for six days in the month of Shawwal, it is as if he has observed As-Saum for the whole year." Sunnan Abo Dawood.
Did you take advantage of the opportunity and expose yourself to it? Stop !!! There is a whiff that we may lose and redress ourselves.
Attention !!!!!!
Sacred month. Dhul-Qa' da, is from the sacred months.
"Indeed, the number of months with Allah is twelve [lunar] months in the register of Allah [from] the day He created the heavens and the earth; of these, four are sacred. That is the correct religion, so do not wrong yourselves during them. And fight against the disbelievers collectively as they fight against you collectively. And know that Allah is with the righteous [who fear Him]."

Abi Bakr reported that the Prophet, peace be upon him, said
The Prophet said. "The division of time has turned to its original form which was current when Allah created the Heavens and the Earths. The year is of twelve months, out of which four months are sacred: Three are in succession Dhul-Qa' da, Dhul-Hijja, and Muharram, and (the fourth is) Rajab of (the tribe of) Mudar which comes between Jumadi-ath-Thaniyah and Sha ban."
Sahih Al Bukhari.

Abi Zar reported what the prophet, peace be upon him, said after Allah "O my servants, I have forbidden injustice upon myself, and I have made it forbidden among you, so do not be unjust.".
Sahih Moslem
The Prophet, peace be upon him, warned us of injustice.
Ibn Omar, may Allah bless him and his father, reported that the Prophet, peace be upon him, said "Fear injustice. Injustice will appear as darkness on the Day of Rising".
Sahih Al Bukhari.
The Prophet, peace be upon him, warned his people of the supplications of the oppressed.
Ibn Abbas:
The Prophet sent Muadh to Yemen and said, "Be afraid, from the curse of the oppressed one as there is no screen between his invocation and Allah."
Oppressing the soul, is to abandon obedience to God, disobey His orders, and avoid His prohibitions, and this is forbidden by the text of the Holy Quran. But in the month of Zil Qa'da and the rest of the sacred months opression is more forbidden.
What is to be done in these months..
1- Don't opress the soul by following instructions of Allah, obey His orders and avoid His prohibitions.
2- Don't oppress people, by insulting them, by taking their money illegally, by shedding their blood, by talking badly about them or by causing corruption until we go to Allah penniless.
Did you seek the opportunity?
If you haven't worshiped Allah well, Stop !!!!!! There is a whiff that we may lose and redress ourselves.
Attention !!! A sacred month.
ZIL HIJJAH is a sacred month... There are many many worships in it. It has the best days in the world.
It is in the wisdom of God Almighty, the signs of His deity and His oneness, and the qualities of His perfection, that some of His creatures are devoted with virtues, some times and places are preferred by having maximized wages and virtues. Almighty God preferred some months, days, and nights over others to be a treasure to the obedient servants and a place to compete with competitors. This will help the Muslim to increase his work; The desire to be obedient, to be energetic in order to maximize his wages, and to receive a large share of his reward, so that he prepares for death before it comes and prepares for the Hereafter.
One of these seasons is ZIL HIJJAH, which the Prophet, peace be upon him, said that its days are the best days in the world.
Sahih Al Gamee.
These days are preferred because they have many types of worship.
Salah, sadaka, hajj, sacrificing, takbeer, tahleel, so the wise Muslim should do all the worships he could. One could have a great reward in these days.
All these days have more weight than fighting for the sake of God. Good deeds in these days are the best to Allah, and they have greater rewards than others.
The prophet, peace be upon him, said:
"There are no days during which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allah than these days,” meaning the (first) ten days of Zil Hijjah. They said: “O Messenger of Allah! Not even Jihad in the cause of Allah?” He said: “Not even Jihad in the cause of Allah, unless a man goes out with himself and his wealth and does not bring anything back.” Sunnan Atermizi.

Saeed Ben Jubair, in these ten days, worked very hard to the point where he was almost unable to.
The Prophet, peace be upon him, said: "No good deeds done on other days are superior to those done on these ten days of Zil Hijjah, then some companions of the Prophet said: not even Jihad? He replied, not even Jihad, except that of a man who does it by putting himself and his property in danger for Allah's sake and does not return with any of those things." Sahih Al Bukhari.
Ibn Hagar said to explain this hadith:
"Does not return with any of those things":
That is, he would be - meaning the mujahid would be in this case - better than the worker in the ten days, or equal to him. In this case: What is meant by his saying: A man went out risking himself and his money, but he did not come back with anything.
Ibn Bataal said that this term implies two things: that he does not return - that is, the mujahid for the sake of God - with any of his money, it also implies, that he and his money do not return, and that he is granted martyrdom by God.
He will be answered with answers:
One of them is: that one thing is honored by its proximity to another noble thing. The days of Tashreeq come after the ten days. The virtue of the Ten Days was confirmed by this discourse, and thus the virtues of the days of Tashreeq.
Second: the ten days of Zil Hijjah are honoured because of the hajj deeds. The rest of the hajj deeds are done in Tashreeq days; as the Tawaf and Ramie Al Jimar. So they are equal in their virtues. That is why Takbeer is common in both of them.
Third: the Feast is on the last day of the ten days of Zil Hijjah, and the beginning of the Tashreeq days, so the ten days of Zil Hijjah have the same virtues of the Tashreeq days
