Dates of the first 10 Blessed Days & Nights of Dhul Hijjah - 2016


Dhul Hijjah is the last month of the Islamic calendar and also the sacred month of Hajj. So blessed are the first 10 days of Dhul Hijjah that according to a large group of commentators of the Qur’an, Allah swears by these 10 days in Surah Fajr:

Allah the Most High & Exalted says: By the Dawn; By the ten Nights; (Qur'an 89:1-2)

The Prophet (Sallahu Alaihi Wassalam) has said regarding these Blessed days: "There are no days in which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allah than these ten days." The people asked , "Not even Jihad for the sake of Allah?" He said, "Not even Jihad for the sake of Allah, except in the case of a man who went out, giving himself and his wealth up for the cause (of Allah), and came back with nothing." (Al-Bukhari)

Many great scholars say that the first 10 days of Dhul Hijjah are even more superior than the days of Ramadan. It is clear then that these 10 days possess tremendous blessings and excellence. Therefore we should spend these 10 blessed days & nights in intensive worship & virtuous acts. How can we possibly afford to miss out on such immense rewards for surely we would be of those in utter regret in the Hereafter!

The following are the confirmed dates of the first 10 blessed days and nights of Dhul Hijjah 2016:

Remember: We can gain immense rewards and forgiveness during these blessed days and nights. So we CANNOT afford to miss out. If we are working during these days then we can plan worship around work. If we work in the day then we should try and sleep a little earlier and awaken in the latter part of the night before Fajr begins and pray 2-8 rakah's of Tahajjud and make intense Dua begging for forgiveness and anything we desire or need from Allah. Even at work we can remember and glorify Allah and do as much as we can. This opportunity only comes once a year and we may NEVER get such an opportunity again as we may not be alive next year!

So make the commitment!

So we should make a firm commitment to devote ourselves in worship during all of the these blessed night and days, if not then at least on as many nights and days as we can. If we still cannot do that then at least on the day of Arafat which is the 9th day. This day should be spent in making intense Dua and utter repentance.

The time to prepare ourselves is now. We should worship Allah with full sincerity, hope for immense reward, forgiveness and mercy from Allah for an entire lifetime of sins. We should also make a firm commitment to Allah that we will change ourselves for the better for the rest of the year.


So let us grab this opportunity with both hands! If we walk towards Allah then he will run towards us! If we miss this opportunity then surely we will be the biggest losers!
