"ما مِنْ يوم أَكْثرُ مِنْ أَنْ يَعْتِقَ اللهُ فِيه عَبْدًا أَوْ أَمَةً من النَّارِ من يوم عرَفَةَ، وإِنَّه لَيَدْنُو ثم يُبَاهى بهم الملائكةَ، فَيقولُ: مَاذَا أَرَادَ هَؤُلاءِ".

Collected by Muslim, Nasāʾī, Ibn Mājah, Ḥākim, Nasāʾī's Kubrá, BayhaqīNone will be granted salvation more than those on the Day of ʿArafah
that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There is no day when Allah grants salvation to more servants from the Hellfire than the Day of ʿArafah. He draws near, then boasts about them to the angels, saying: 'What do these people desire (and He may grant them)?'"
إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ: «مَا مِنْ يَوْمٍ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ أَنْ يُعْتِقَ اللَّهُ فِيهِ عَبْدًا مِنَ النَّارِ مِنْ يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ، وَإِنَّهُ لَيَدْنُو ثُمَّ يُبَاهِي بِهِمُ الْمَلاَئِكَةَ فَيَقُولُ: (مَا أَرَادَ هَؤُلاَءِ؟)»
"There is no day on which Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, frees more of his slaves, male and female, from the fire, than the day of Arafah. He comes close, then he boasts to the angels about them and say: 'What do these people want?'" (Sahih) Abdu Abdur-Rhamn (An-Nasai) said: It appears that Yunus bin Yusuf is the one who reported it from Malik and Allah, most High, Knows best.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَا مِنْ يَوْمٍ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ أَنْ يَعْتِقَ اللَّهُ ﷻ فِيهِ عَبْدًا أَوْ أَمَةً مِنَ النَّارِ مِنْ يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ إِنَّهُ لَيَدْنُو ثُمَّ يُبَاهِي بِهِمُ الْمَلاَئِكَةَ وَيَقُولُ مَا أَرَادَ هَؤُلاَءِ
“There is no day on which Allah ransoms more slaves from the Fire than the Day of ‘Arafah. He draws closer and closer, then He boasts about them before the angels and says: ‘What do these people want?’”
عَائِشَةُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَا مِنْ يَوْمٍ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ أَنْ يُعْتِقَ اللَّهُ ﷻ فِيهِ عَبْدًا مِنَ النَّارِ مِنْ يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ وَإِنَّهُ لَيَدْنُو ﷻ ثُمَّ يُبَاهِي بِهِمُ الْمَلاَئِكَةَ فَيَقُولُ مَا أَرَادَ هَؤُلاَءِ
There is no day when God sets free more servants from Hell than the Day of 'Arafa. He draws near, then praises them to the angels, saying: What do these want? (Using translation from Muslim 1348)
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ مَا مِنْ يَوْمٍ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ أَنْ يَعْتِقَ اللَّهُ فِيهِ عَبْدًا مِنَ النَّارِ مِنْ يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ وَإِنَّهُ لَيَدْنُو ثُمَّ يُبَاهِي الْمَلَائِكَةَ فَيَقُولُ مَا أَرَادُوا هَؤُلَاءِ؟
