I welcome you to a talk on
the 1st 10 days of the Lija. I've
divided
this talk
into 4 sections.
The first is importance
of
the first 10 days of the ledger.
The second
is the important acts and deeds to be
done during the first ten days of the
Lijja. The third is the virtue of Arafa,
and the 4th
is idul adha
or yawmul nahara.
First, we'll discuss
the importance
of the first 10 days of the lajjah.
This
is a forgotten sunnah of our beloved partner
sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. You may have sinned
all year.
You may have missed
doing good deeds in the month of Ramadan.
You may have missed the last 10 nights
of Ramadan. You may have missed
doing good deeds, doing Lele Trukadar.
This is your opportunity.
Make the best of it. The first 10
days of the rajah.
Even if you have not sinned the whole
year, maybe you did some minor sins.
Maybe you did Ibadah in the month of
Ramadan.
Even you might have got the last 10
nights of Ramadan.
Even you might have prayed the full night
of life through Khazar. Yet,
you cannot afford as a Muslim
the opportunity
during the first 10 days of the religion.
Most of us Muslims,
we are normally aware
of the importance of Ramadan, and we prepare
ourselves.
And I remember when I was a kid,
more than 30 years back, when I was
in school,
about 45 years back,
we used to prepare
ourselves for Ramadan and we knew the importance
of Ramadan even
of the last 10 nights of Ramadan. But
we never heard
about the importance of the first ten days
of the Lijjah.
Now since social media has started,
this is being discussed
by the speakers. My time when I was
a kid when I was in school,
when I just entered college, we never heard
the speaker speaking about the importance of 10
days of the Rijjah.
I remember the first time I heard was
maybe
about 15 years back in the social media.
When we got involved in the field of
dava,
more than 25, 30 years back, that's the
time we came to know about the importance
of
the first ending of the ledger.
And it was about 15 years back that
the first time I heard in the social
media a speaker speaking about the importance of
the first ten din of the jilajah. And,
year by year, it's increasing
and more and more people are speaking
about the importance of the first tender of
the ledger. That is the reason I thought
I will dedicate the major portion of this
session today
to
the first ended of the Dileja.
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
takes an oath
in Surah Fajr,
chapter number 89,
verse number 1 to 2. Allah says,
walayalin
ash.
By fajr. By dawn.
By
the 10 nights.
And the Mufasirim
they say,
these 10 nights that Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
is taking oath of refers to the first
10 days of the rija.
And in many languages,
when you speak about the days, it includes
the nights. When you speak about the night,
it includes the day. For example, if I
say in English, I spent
10 days in London.
But naturally, it includes
I've spent 10 days and 10 nights in
London. Depending upon the context, include the full
day, it may include part of the day,
it may include the night, it may not
include. Similarly,
when in Arabic,
the nights are referred to,
it may refer to the night only. It
may refer to the night and day put
together or it may refer to the day
only.
In this Surah al Fajr,
Surah number 89, verse number 1 to 2,
When Allah says, wal fajr,
walayalin
ashr
by dawn,
by the 10 nights. The Mufassareen
say and it's also mentioned in Ibn Kathir,
volume number 8, page number 413.
And if we refer to the summarized version,
the English translation
printed, madarasalam,
it is volume number 10,
page number 468.
Ibn Kasir and many of us say
that these 10 nights refer
to
the 1st 10 days of dulija.
And they agree
that these
first 10 days of dulija
are better than all the other days of
the year.
It's even better
than the last 10 days of Ramadan.
But
it's mentioned, the lembi Kassir,
volume number 5, page number 412,
that
though the first 10 days of the lija
are the best days of the full year,
The last 10 nights of Ramadan
are the best nights of the year.
The scholars differ. Some scholars few do say
that
the first 10 days of the lijja are
better than the last 10 nights of Ramadan.
There are few scholars who say the last
10 nights are better than the first ten
days of the religion. But the right opinion
and the right opinion is
by Biberita Imiya, Sheikh al Islam.
May Allah have mercy on him. And he
rightly said
that the first 10 days of dul Ijja
are the best days in the full year.
It is even better than the last 10
days of Ramadan.
But
the last 10 nights of Ramadan,
they are the best nights in the full
year because
it has the laitruqadar.
It is the best night in the full
year. So the last 10 nights of Ramadan
are the best nights because it has their
dirkadr. And amongst the days in the full
year, the first 10 days of dulija
are the best days in the year because
it has
the yomul
arafa, the day of arafa.
