حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَرْعَرَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ الْبَطِينِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «مَا الْعَمَلُ فِي أَيَّامِ الْعَشْرِ أَفْضَلَ مِنَ الْعَمَلِ فِي هَذِهِ». قَالُوا وَلَا الْجِهَادُ قَالَ: «وَلَا الْجِهَادُ، إِلاَّ رَجُلٌ خَرَجَ يُخَاطِرُ بِنَفْسِهِ وَمَالِهِ فَلَمْ يَرْجِعْ بِشَىْءٍ»

The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “No good deeds done on other days are superior to those done on these (first ten days of Dhul Hijja).” Then some companions of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “Not even Jihad?” He replied, “Not even Jihad, except that of a man who does it by putting himself and his property in danger (for Allah’s sake) and does not return with any of those things.”

ইবনু ‘আব্বাস (রাযি.) হতে বর্ণিত। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ যিলহাজ্জ মাসের প্রথম দশ দিনের ‘আমলের চেয়ে অন্য কোন দিনের ‘আমলই উত্তম নয়। তাঁরা জিজ্ঞেস করলেন, জিহাদও কি (উত্তম) নয়? নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বললেনঃ জিহাদও নয়। তবে সে ব্যক্তির কথা ছাড়া যে নিজের জান ও মালের ঝুঁকি নিয়েও জিহাদে যায় এবং কিছুই নিয়ে ফিরে আসে না।

ہم سے محمد بن عرعرہ نے بیان کیا، انہوں نے کہا کہ ہم سے شعبہ نے سلیمان کے واسطے سے بیان کیا، ان سے مسلم بطین نے، ان سے سعید بن جبیر نے، ان سے عبداللہ بن عباس رضی اللہ عنہما نے کہ نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا ان دنوں کے عمل سے زیادہ کسی دن کے عمل میں فضیلت نہیں۔

لوگوں نے پوچھا اور جہاد میں بھی نہیں۔ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا کہ ہاں جہاد میں بھی نہیں سوا اس شخص کے جو اپنی جان و مال خطرہ میں ڈال کر نکلا اور واپس آیا تو ساتھ کچھ بھی نہ لایا ( سب کچھ اللہ کی راہ میں قربان کر دیا ) ۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Muhammad bin 'Ar'arah] berkata, telah menceritakan kepada kami [Syu'bah] dari [Sulaiman] dari [Muslim Al Bathin] dari [Sa'id bin Jubair] dari [Ibnu 'Abbas] dari Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam, beliau bersabda: "Tidak ada amal yang lebih utama pada hari-hari (tasyriq) ini selian berkurban."

Para sahabat berkata, "Tidak juga jihad?" Beliau menjawab: "Tidak juga jihad. Kecuali seseorang yang keluar dari rumahnya dengan mengorbankan diri dan hartanya (di jalan Allah), lalu dia tidak kembali lagi

Saîd İbn Cübeyr'in İbn Abbas (Radiyallahu Anh)'dan naklettiğine göre Resuİullah Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem şöyle buyurmuştur: "Zilhicce'nin on günü içinde işte şu vakitteki amel kadar faziletli hiçbir amel yoktur." Sahâbîler: "Cihad damı bu günlerdeki amellerden daha faziletli değil!?" deyince Resul-i Ekrem Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem şöyle buyurdu: "Cihad da...

Sadece canını ve malını hiç gözünü kırpmadan feda edebilecek şekilde savaşa tutuşan ve geriye hiçbir şey getiremeyen kişinin ameli bunun dışındadır

Sahih al-Bukhari 969, Book 13, The Two Festivals (Eids), Hadith 18. 1 min read

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) points out that good deeds in the first ten days of the month of Dhul-Hijjah are better than those performed during the other days of the year. The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) about Jihad in the cause of Allah outside these ten days, as to whether it is better or the good deeds performed in these days.

This is because it was well established among them that Jihad is one of the best deeds. In response, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said that good deeds on these days are better than Jihad performed on other days, with the exception of a man who goes out for Jihad and risks his life and property for the cause of Allah and he loses both his property and life. This is what is better than good deeds in these virtuous days.

What it teaches

  • The Hadīth highlights the merit of good deeds performed in the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah. A Muslim should seize these days and perform many pious acts therein, including remembrance of Allah, recitation of the Qur'an, proclamation of Allah's greatness, oneness, praise, prayer, charity, fasting, and all deeds of righteousness.
