ḤADĪTH OF THE DAY
“ Same as above ”
Sunan at-Tirmithiy كتاب الصوم باب ما جاء فى العمل فى أيام العشر
حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ هُوَ الْبَطِينُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عِمْرَانَ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَا مِنْ أَيَّامٍ الْعَمَلُ الصَّالِحُ فِيهِنَّ أَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ الأَيَّامِ الْعَشْرِ. فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَلاَ الْجِهَادُ فِى سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَلاَ الْجِهَادُ فِى سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ إِلاَّ رَجُلٌ خَرَجَ بِنَفْسِهِ وَمَالِهِ فَلَمْ يَرْجِعْ مِنْ ذَلِكَ بِشَىْءٍ. وَفِى الْبَابِ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ وَأَبِى هُرَيْرَةَ وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو وَجَابِرٍ. قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ.
Abdullāh Ibn-Abbās said, "The Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, said, 'On no other days are righteous deeds preferable to God than on these ten days (1).' So, they (the Companions) exclaimed, 'O Messenger of God, not even jihād (2)?!' The Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, replied, 'Not even jihād, except for [that of] a man who left for jihād risking his life and his wealth, then did not return with either of them.'" Footnotes: 1. The first ten days of Thul-Hijjah. 2. Jihād is defined as any earnest striving for the sake of God that promotes righteousness and stands against wrong-doing. If it entails fighting, no woman, child or innocent civilian may be harmed, nor a tree cut down. Islām calls for moderation and tolerance, and abhors extremism, terrorism, oppression and discrimination. Click on ḥadīth to read more
