Dhul Hijjah – The Month of Spirituality!
Embrace the Blessings of Dhul Hijjah
As we approach the sacred month of Dhul Hijjah, the last month of the Islamic lunar calendar, let us embrace its immense blessings.
Dhul Hijjah is a time for spiritual reflection and devotion, as well as the joyous celebration of Eid al-Adha. It is that special time of the year when millions of Muslims from around the world perform Hajj.
"There are no days on which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allah than these ten days."
Prophet Muhammad (SAW)
(Sahih Bukhari)These golden days are filled with opportunities for worship and reward, a chance for us to renew our faith and draw closer to Allah (SWT). During these ten blessed days, Muslims are encouraged to engage in various forms of worship, including:
-
-
- Fasting: Especially on the Day of Arafah (9th Dhul-Hijjah)
- Prayer and Remembrance: Additional prayers, Qur’an recitation, and dhikr
- Charity: Give generously to those in need
- Sacrifice: Observing the practice of Qurbani (sacrifice)
-
Tips to Engage Children in their Summer Break:
