٨۔ كتاب الصوم
Virtue of righteous deeds during the ten days
[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "There are no days in which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allah ﷻ than these ten days." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, not even jihad in the path of Allah?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Not even jihad in the path of Allah, except for a man who goes out with his life and his wealth, and returns with nothing of that."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «مَا مِنْ أَيَّامٍ الْعَمَلُ الصَّالِحُ فِيهِنَّ أَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ الأَيَّامِ الْعَشْرِ»، فَقَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، وَلاَ الْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «وَلاَ الْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ، إِلاَّ رَجُلٌ خَرَجَ بِنَفْسِهِ وَمَالِهِ فَلَمْ يَرْجِعْ مِنْ ذَلِكَ بِشَيْءٍ».
the Prophet said: "There are no days more beloved to Allah that He be worshipped in them than the ten days of Dhul-Hijjah, fasting every day of them is the equivalent of fasting a year, and standing every night of them (in prayer) is the equivalent of standing on the Night of Qadr."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ مَا مِنْ أَيَّامٍ أَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ أَنْ يُتَعَبَّدَ لَهُ فِيهَا مِنْ عَشْرِ ذِي الْحِجَّةِ يَعْدِلُ صِيَامُ كُلِّ يَوْمٍ مِنْهَا بِصِيَامِ سَنَةٍ وَقِيَامُ كُلِّ لَيْلَةٍ مِنْهَا بِقِيَامِ لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ
