#virtuous

None will be granted salvation more than those on the Day of ʿArafah

muslim:1348Hārūn b. Saʿīd al-Aylī And ʾAḥmad b. ʿĪsá > Ibn Wahb > Makhramah b. Bukayr from his father > Yūnus b. Yūsuf > Ibn al-Musayyab > ʿĀʾishah

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)?'"  

مسلم:١٣٤٨حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الأَيْلِيُّ وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ عِيسَى قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي مَخْرَمَةُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ يُونُسَ بْنَ يُوسُفَ يَقُولُ عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ قَالَ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ

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؟)»  


ذِكْرُ رَجَاءِ الْعِتْقِ مِنَ النَّارِ لِمَنْ شَهِدَ عَرَفَاتٍ يَوْمَ عَرَفَةَ

ibnhibban:3853al-Ḥasan b. Sufyān > Muḥammad b. ʿAmr b. Jabalah > Muḥammad b. Marwān al-ʿUqaylī > Hishām > al-Dastuwāʾī > Abū al-Zubayr > Jābir

the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There are no days more virtuous in the sight of Allah than the ten of Dhū al-Ḥijjah." A man asked: O Messenger of Allah, are they more virtuous or the count of days fighting in the cause of Allah? He said, "They are more virtuous than the count of days fighting in cause of Allah,"

"... and there is no day more virtuous in the sight of Allah than the Day of ʿArafah: for He descends to the worldly sky and boasts about the people of earth to those in the sky and He says: 'Look at My servants appearing disheveled and dusty. They have come from every far corner ˹of earth˺ seeking my Mercy and they do not see my punishment.' You will not see more ˹people˺ having salvation from the Hellfire than the Day of ʿArafah.'"  

ابن حبّان:٣٨٥٣أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ جَبَلَةَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَرْوَانَ الْعُقَيْلِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ هُوَ الدَّسْتُوَائِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَا مِنْ أَيَّامٍ أَفْضَلُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مِنْ أَيَّامِ عَشْرِ ذِي الْحِجَّةِ» قَالَ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، هُنَّ أَفْضَلُ أَمْ عِدَّتُهُنَّ جِهَادًا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ: «هُنَّ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ عِدَّتِهِنَّ جِهَادًا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ،»

«وَمَا مِنْ يوْمٍ أَفْضَلُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مِنْ يوْمِ عَرَفَةَ يَنْزِلُ اللَّهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا فَيُبَاهِي بِأَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ أَهْلَ السَّمَاءِ فَيَقُولُ انْظُرُوا إِلَى عِبَادِي شُعْثًا غُبْرًا ضَاحِينَ جَاءُوا مِنْ كُلِّ فَجٍّ عَمِيقٍ يَرْجُونَ رَحْمَتِي وَلَمْ يَرَوْا عَذَابِي فَلَمْ يُرَ يَوْمٌ أَكْثَرُ عِتْقًا مِنَ النَّارِ مِنْ يوْمِ عَرَفَةَ»
