First 10 Days Of Dhul-Hijjah -- Mention The Name Of Allah A Lot

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful, Most Compassionate

Allah mentions in the Quran that dhikr of Allah should be done frequently. Dhikr means to remember. Everybody can remember Allah once in a while but people wo are going to Paradise are those who remember Allah a lot ( كَثِيرًا ). Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says in the Quran,

... وَالذَّاكِرِينَ اللَّـهَ كَثِيرًا وَالذَّاكِرَاتِ أَعَدَّ اللَّـهُ لَهُم مَّغْفِرَةً وَأَجْرًا عَظِيمًا ﴿٣٥

... and the men who remember Allah often and the women who do so - for them Allah has prepared forgiveness and a great reward. [Quran, Al Ahzab 33;35]

During these days of hajj, let's mention the Name of Allah a lot.

Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala mentions this twice in Surah Al Hajj,

وَلِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ جَعَلْنَا مَنسَكًا لِّيَذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللَّـهِ عَلَىٰ مَا رَزَقَهُم مِّن بَهِيمَةِ الْأَنْعَامِ ۗ فَإِلَـٰهُكُمْ إِلَـٰهٌ وَاحِدٌ فَلَهُ أَسْلِمُوا ۗ وَبَشِّرِ الْمُخْبِتِينَ ﴿٣٤

And for all religion We have appointed a rite [of sacrifice] that they may mention the name of Allah over what He has provided for them of [sacrificial] animals. For your god is one God, so to Him submit. And, [O Muhammad], give good tidings to the humble [before their Lord] [Quran, Al Hajj 22:34]

لِّيَشْهَدُوا مَنَافِعَ لَهُمْ وَيَذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللَّـهِ فِي أَيَّامٍ مَّعْلُومَاتٍ عَلَىٰ مَا رَزَقَهُم مِّن بَهِيمَةِ الْأَنْعَامِ ۖ فَكُلُوا مِنْهَا وَأَطْعِمُوا الْبَائِسَ الْفَقِيرَ ﴿٢٨

That they may witness benefits for themselves and mention the name of Allah on known days over what He has provided for them of [sacrificial] animals. So eat of them and feed the miserable and poor. [Quran, Al Hajj 22:28]

May Allah make us of those who are constantly doing dhikr of Allah. Aameen.

Allahumma salli 'ala Muhammad wa 'ala aalihi wa sahbihi wasallam.

And Allah knows best and is Most Wise, and He alone grants success, and to Him is the final return of all.

Wassalaam
