Abdullah ibn-Umar (May Allah be pleased with him) reported
that Prophet Muhammad (sallallaho alaihi wa sallam) said:
"There are no days greater in the sight of Allah
and in which righteous deeds are more beloved to Him
than these ten days (of Dhul-Hijjah).
So, during this time, recite a great deal of
Tahlil (saying Laa ilaaha illa-Allah)
{ there is none worthy of worship except Allah }
Takbeer (Allahuakkbar) and
Tahmid (alhumdulillaah)."
(Reported by Ahmad.)
