Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There are no days in which righteous deeds are more virtuous than the ten days of Dhul-Hijjah." The Companions asked: "Not even Jihad in the way of Allah?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "Not even Jihad in the way of Allah, except (for that Jihad in which) a man goes out with his life and wealth and does not return with anything."
