Yawmul ‘Arafah – A Day of Mercy & Forgiveness

Yawmul ‘Arafah (Day of ‘Arafah) is one of the most sacred days in the Islamic calendar. It falls on the 9th day of Dhul-Hijjah, the day before Eid al-Adha, and it is the day when the pilgrims performing Hajj gather at the plain of ‘Arafah, praying and seeking forgiveness.

It is the day the religion was perfected:
Allah revealed in the Qur-an:
“This day I have perfected for you your religion and completed My favor upon you and have approved for you Islam as your religion.” (Surah Al-Ma’idah 5:3)

It is highly recommended to fast for those not performing Hajj.

The Prophet ﷺ said: “Fasting on the Day of ‘Arafah, I hope, will expiate for the sins of the previous year and the coming year.” (Sahih Muslim)

Increase in saying:
•Tahleel: Lā ilāha illā Allāh
•Takbeer: Allāhu Akbar
•Tahmeed: Alhamdulillāh
•Tasbeeh: Subhānallāh

Whether you’re on Hajj or at home, don’t miss this chance to fast, make heartfelt du‘ā, and seek Allah’s mercy. May Allah accept our efforts and du‘ā on this blessed day. 🤍

Ya rabb, I don't know what your plans for me. But nevertheless, I will always choose to trust you. Even in pain, even in tears, even in uncertainties, I completely trust your plans for me.

Give me tāwfiq and hidāyah to get through it all.
Ameen. 🤍
