Dhul Hijjah: The Best Days of the Year
Help young learners explore the importance of the first ten days of Dhul Hijjah, learn the main acts of worship for these days, and prepare a personal action plan with this engaging lesson.
There are no better days in the sight of Allah than the first ten days of Dhul Hijjah. Dhul Hijjah: The Best Days of the Year is the engaging lesson helping learners understand why these extraordinary days are so precious and how every Muslim, whether performing hajj or not, can seize them with intention, worship, and a heart full of love for Allah.
The lesson opens by establishing Dhul Hijjah as one of the four sacred months in Islam, a month of mercy and forgiveness that mirrors the blessing of Ramadan. Through the words of our beloved Prophet ﷺ, learners discover that good deeds performed during these ten days are more beloved to Allah than good deeds performed at any other time of the year, and that the very best deed during these days is dhikr: filling the tongue and heart with tahlil, takbir, and tahmid.
Day by day, learners are guided through a beautiful and practical breakdown of what to do throughout the ten days: fasting as many days as possible from the 1st to the 8th, the mighty fast of the Day of ʿArafah on the 9th which wipes away two years of sins, the joyful sunnahs and qurbani of Eid al-Adha on the 10th, and the continued dhikr and takbirat of tashriq through the Days of Tashriq until after ʿasr on the 13th. The full text and translation of the takbirat at-tashriq is presented clearly for learners to memorise and carry with them.
