Summary

The hadith narrated by Ibn Abbas shows that righteous deeds in the first ten days of Dhul Hijjah are the most beloved to Allah compared with other days, surpassing even jihad except for the one who goes out with his life and wealth and never returns. Even a lesser deed done in this period becomes better than a greater deed done at other times. Reports of multiplied rewards, such as 700 times or a day of fasting equalling a year, appear in many versions, but their chains are described as weak.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.

Hadis menjadi dalil kepada beramal pada 10 hari ini lebih disukai oleh Allah berbanding amalan-amalan pada hari yang lain tanpa sebarang pengecualian.
