In the blessed month of Dhu�l-�ijjah, the pious companions of the Holy Prophet and their followers used to do many acts of worship . The first ten days of this month are called al-ayy�m al-ma`l�m�t (The Stated Days) by the Holy Qur'�n.([1])About these highly honorable days, the Holy Prophet (�) is reported to have said that nothing is more preferable to Almighty Allah than practicing acts of worship on these ten stated days.

[1]) This is an indication of the following holy verse, ��That they may witness advantages for them and mention the name of Allah during stated days over what He has given them of the cattle quadrupeds, then eat of them and feed the distressed one, the needy. 22/28�

First: It is recommended to observe fasting on the first nine days of Dhu�l-�ijjah, for it is equal to the fasting of one�s whole lifetime.

Second: At each of these ten nights, it is recommended to offer a two unit prayer between the Maghrib and `Ish�' obligatory prayers and to recite at each unit S�rah al-F�ti�ah once, S�rah al-Taw��d once, and the following verse (7/142):The reward of offering this prayer is to participate in the rewards of those who go on �ajj.

However, `All�mah al-Majlis� says that it is not improbable that each of these five testaments is repeated ten times each day. Yet, to repeat them one hundred times is better.

O Allah these are the days Thou has preferred to and surpassed over other (ordinary) days, and mercifully as a favour gave me the opportunity to avail its advantages, so send down Thy good for us, and increase Thy good for us, and increase Thy bounties bestowed on us in these days. O Allah I ask Thee to send blessings on Muhammad and on the children of Muhammad. And keep us on the rightly guided path, leading us to moderation, contentment, and productive labour, through which we get Thy love and sympathy. O Allah I ask Thee. O he who makes good and settle complaints, O He who listens to that which hearts and minds ask for secretly, O He sees clearly through points of view and opinions, expressed openly. O He who knows and ins and outs of that which is kept undisclosed, to send blessings on Muhammad and on the children of Muhammad, and, during these days, disperse the calamities hovering over our heads, accede to our request, strengthen us, help us and encourage us, by which we get Thy love and sympathy, and carry out that which has been made obligatory in Thy obedience and in the obedience of Thy Messenger and Thy authorized representatives. O Allah I ask Thee, O the Most Merciful of all the merciful, to send blessings on Muhammad and on the children of Muhammad, and grant us Thy approval, because verily, Thou hears supplications, in these days, do not deprive us of the good that Thou sends down in this period from the heaven, cleanse us of the (dirt of) sins, O Knower of the unseen, and make certain for us a place in the land of everlasting happiness (Paradise). O Allah sends blessings on Muhammad and on the children of Muhammad, and do not leave us alone burdened with sin, setting aside forgiveness, do not fill yus with care and sorrow, passing over relief, do not let us borrow unless made able to pay back, do not remove us (from any place) or send (in any direction) without keeping clear the way back home, and do not render anything necessary, whether it is a worldly need or a desire for the everlasting happiness, except that fulfillment is made easy and expeditious. Verily Thou art able to do all things. O Allah, O knower of the secrets, O He who takes pity on those who shed tears, O He who gives answer to those who call on Him. O lord of the earths and the heavens. O He whom (countless) voices of the (supplicants) do not confuse (He pays attention to each and every call separately), send blessings on Muhammad and on the children of Muhammad, and declare us as those who have been set free and kept foar away from the Fire, and have been rescued to reach Thy Paradise, through Thy Mercy, O the Most Merciful of all the merciful, send blessings on our Master Muhammad, and on (all) his children.

(i) I testify that there is no god save Allah only. He has no partner. Unto He belongs the sovereignty. Unto He belongs the praise. In His hand is the good. And it is he who is able to do all things.

(ii) I testify that there is not god save Allah only. He has no partner; Single and Ever-Independent, (He) has taken neither wife nor son.

(iii) I testify that there is no god save Allah only. He has no partner, One, Ever-Independent, He begets not, nor was He begotten, and there is none comparable (co-equal) unto Him.

(iv) I testify that there is no god save Allah only, he has no partner. Unto he belongs the sovereignty. Unto he belongs the praise. He gives life and he puts to death. And it is He who is Ever-Alive, never non-existent. In His hand is the good. And it is He who is able to do all things.

(v) Allah is my all. He is enough (for me). Allah hears the prayer of the supplicant. Beyond Allah there is no destination. I testify Allah unto Whom I turn to make requests, disconnecting all links with those who go astray for Him. Unto Allah belongs the beginning and the end.

There is no god save Allah, in the midst of the multitude of nights and days; there is no god save Allah, in the midst of the repeating concourse of the waves moving across the surface of the oceans; there is no god save Allah, His loving kindness (mercy) out balances their addition put together; there is no god save Allah, in the midst of the plentitude of plants and leaves; There is no god save Allah, in the midst of countless pores and mass of hairs; there is no god save Allah, in the midst of numerous stones and particles in heaps; there is no god save Allah, in the midst of quite a many flashes of the eyes; there is no god save Allah, in the hours of every night when darkness begins to deepen and at every daybreak when light shines bright; there is no god save Allah, in the midst of thousands of winds blowing over the plains and mountains; there is no god save Allah, from today to the day of �blow the horn� (the final call).

The eighth of Dhu�l-hijjah is called the Tarwiyah Day. To observe fasting on this day brings about a great reward. According to a narration, it erases the sins of sixty years. Shaykh al-Shaheed (the martyr) has said that it is recommended to bathe oneself on this day.
