Mufti Menk – Best 10 Days – Dhul Hijjah #03 – Do Not Multiply Your Sins

			Salam Alaikum, my brothers and sisters, in the same way that good deeds are multiplied during
certain seasons and certain times sins are also multiplied. So if there is a month that Allah has
declared as blessed, or there are a set of days that Allah has declared as great, and they have
virtue and that good deeds are multiplied in those days are very loved and to Allah during those
days, then you need to know if you were to sin on those days, that would also be multiplied, because
as much as the good deeds would earn greater pleasure of Allah sins would earn greater Wrath of
Allah. So one of the ways of actually doing a good deed is to abstain from sin. Did you realize as
		

			Muslims that just by staying away from sin, you are already earning a reward? Amazing, and doing a
good deed by not doing a bad deed? Or Wow, that's amazing. Only with Allah, the Most Merciful, the
most kind. If I were to stop myself from doing something that would displease Allah, for his sake.
So what have I done, I've pleased him. So the pleasure of Allah lies in staying away from his
displeasure, he'll already be happy. Mashallah, that's an amazing thing. So my brothers and sisters
sons are also multiplied at certain times. And in certain places, imagine a person since
		

			if someone commits a sin, perhaps in private in his in his own home, it's different from sinning in
the masjid, for example, the house of Allah. And it's different from sinning in Makkah, for example,
and it's different from sinning in Ramadan, for example, and it's different from sinning during the
last 10 nights of Ramadan. So I hope you realize that during these blessed 10 days, one of the
things you should be doing is to avoid that which is sinful, major and minor. We should be avoiding
sin throughout the year, but Allah gives us certain seasons where we become more conscious of sins,
so we don't do them. And that would actually result in the pleasure of Allah which will result in US
		

			becoming more conscious of Allah becoming better people. And that will then help us to stay away
from those sins, even outside of that season, be it on a van, or be it the 10 days of the Ranger or
any other bless a time or place. So this is our last favor upon us, we need to realize this. What we
must also do do during these days, because we know that Allah loves good deeds during these days
more than any other days. And I've already explained the difference between the nights where the
nights of Ramadan are more blessed. And the days the days of the first 10 days of the Ranger are
more blessed. What should I do?
		

			Think of a variety of good deeds. Start off by what Look, I can tell you something, you have 10
days, if you were to read
		

			or recite three chapters of the Quran a day
		

			you'd complete the 30 chapters in 10 days.
		

			So panela and if you want to do it in nine days, you can add to that you can actually make it full
you can actually you will complete it in less than the time. So remember this, you can read if you
the Quran if you cannot complete it, no problem, at least you read more than usual. Okay. Another
thing to do, for example,
		

			there is a hadith that says there is a certain victim certain remembrance of Allah declaring a
certain praise of Allah if you were to repeat it 100 times a day, you have you will have a massive
reward of having freed 10 slaves.
		

			And remember Islam came about with the freedom of slaves more than anything else. So you have a
reward of freeing 10 slaves you have a reward of
		

			so much 100 rewards written next to your name and 100 sins wiped out from next to your name. These
are minuses that sometimes you may not know about. And Allah elevates your status up to the evening
or up to the morning depending on when you've said it. Allah protects you from shake bang. What is
this beautiful statement? La ilaha illallah wa Devo there is none worthy of worship besides Allah
Allah alone, luxury killer who no partner does, he has no human could To Him belongs entire kingdom.
Well, I will handle and
		

			To Him belongs, all praise, you hear what you need to he gives life and he causes death. Well who
are alacrity sharing and he is able to do anything and everything. That statement said at least 100
times and you will have the reward that I mentioned. May Allah subhanho wa Taala grant his good
deeds. Also what's good to do be very kind to your parents during these 10 days not to say don't be
kind during other days. Also give some charity during these days, perhaps engage in night prayer a
little bit more excessively, and also seek your forgiveness of Allah and Allah Almighty will forgive
you. May Allah grant us or is akuto Kohli Heather or sallallahu wasallam Alana Bynum.
