Our Next Seminar: Complicated?

Bismillah walhumdulillah wasSalaatu wasSalaamu ‘ala Rasoolillah

Shaykh Waleed Basyouni is returning to Durbah to teach his brand new seminar, “Complicated? The A to Z of Women’s Modern Fiqh”. And yes, this seminar is for both brothers and sisters :)

This is the first AlMaghrib seminar of its kind, focusing on the Fiqh of a particular group, in this case the Fiqh of over half the ummah. Obviously, it’s a no-brainer for all sisters to attend — and the brothers also need to learn about their other halves, which makes it essential for everyone to learn and benefit from.

Listen to Shaykh Waleed talk about it below in his series of videos, and see why you need to attend!

Virtues and Actions of the First 10 Days of Dhul-Hijjah

The Superiority of the First Ten Days of Dhul-Hijjah

By Shaykh ibn al-Uthaymeen, may Allah have mercy on him

All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the Worlds. May peace and blessings be upon the Chief of the Messengers, Muhammad. Indeed it is a great favour and blessing from Allah that He has made for His righteous servants periods of time within which they can increase in good deeds to attain great rewards and one of these opportunistic periods is the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah (the final month of the Islamic Calendar, in which the hajj is performed).

SUPERIORITY OF THE FIRST TEN DAYS OF DHUL-HIJJAH
The excellence of these ten days have been mentioned in the 
Qur’ân and the Sunnah.

1. Allah says in the Qur’ân:

“By the dawn and by the ten nights … ” [Al-Qur'ân 89:1-2]

Ibn Kathîr said that ”the ten nights” referred to here are the ten days of Dhul-Hijjah, and this opinion was also held by Ibn Abbâs, Ibn az-Zubair, Mujâhid and others.

2. The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said:

“There are no deeds as excellent as those done in these ten days.” They (the companions listening) said, “Not even Jihâd?” He, peace be upon him, said, “No, not even Jihâd except a man who goes forth endangering his life and wealth and does not return with anything.” [Recorded by al-Imâm al-Bukhârî]
