عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُما، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ:
«ما من أيامٍ العملُ الصالحُ فيها أحبُّ إلى الله من هذه الأيامِ»
قالوا: يا رسولَ اللهِ، ولا الجهادُ في سبيلِ اللهِ؟
قال: «ولا الجهادُ في سبيلِ اللهِ، إلا رجلٌ خرج بنفسِه ومالِه، فلم يرجِعْ من ذلك بشيءٍ»
Narrated by Ibn ʿAbbās (may Allah be pleased with him), the Prophet ﷺ said:
“There are no days in which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allah than these (first ten) days (of Dhul-Hijjah).”
They said: “Not even striving in the path of Allah, O Messenger of Allah?”
He said: “Not even striving in the path of Allah—except for a man who goes out with his life and wealth and returns with neither.”
(Al-Bukhari)
