The first 10 days of Dhul Hijjah are among the most sacred in the Islamic calendar. They are an opportunity for immense reward, forgiveness and spiritual renewal. 

According to many scholars, these 10 days are so significant that Allah swears by them in the Qur’an.

 

By the dawn, and the 10 nights, and the even and the odd, and the night when it passes! Is all this ˹not˺ a sufficient oath for those who have sense?

[Qur’an | Surah Al-Fajr | 89:1-5]

These special days are a chance to grow closer to Allah through prayer, fasting, dhikr, and giving in charity. 

Scheduling your donations during Dhul Hijjah can allow you to maximise the blessings of this sacred time without missing a single day. 

What is scheduled giving?

Scheduled giving is a way to automate your donations during the best 10 days of the year. You choose your donation amount and scheduled dates through our website, and your giving is processed automatically each day, without you needing to remember or take action daily.

This makes it easier to give consistently during the most rewarding days of the Islamic year, and you can even choose to give more on the Day of Arafah to maximise your blessings.

How scheduled giving for Dhul Hijjah works

Our process is simple: 

  • Select the dates for your donation to be processed.
  • Choose what you would like to donate. 
  • Complete your payment. 

We will send you a receipt after each payment has been made. By scheduling your donations during these 10 days, you can ensure that your generosity doesn’t miss a moment of reward. It can also give you peace of mind that your acts of charity are being carried out consistently, even when life gets busy. 

The rewards for good deeds in Dhul Hijjah

Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: 

"There are no days during which the righteous deeds are more beloved to Allah than these days,” [meaning the (first) 10 days of Dhul Hijjah]. His companions said: “O Messenger of Allah! Not even jihad in the cause of Allah?” He said: “Not even jihad in the cause of Allah, unless a man goes out with himself and his wealth and does not bring anything back.

[Hadith | Sunan Ibn Majah, 1727]

The first 10 days of Dhul Hijjah are better than all the other days of the year. They are even better than the days of Ramadan, subhanAllah! Each act of worship holds multiplied reward; from fasting and prayer to giving sadaqah and performing qurbani. 

As you increase your ibadah and seek the rewards from Allah SWT during this blessed time, take the opportunity to not miss out on the increased rewards with your zakat and sadaqah. 

Don’t miss the blessings of Dhul Hijjah 

Whether you’re supporting families through qurbani, offering sadaqah, or giving your zakat, scheduled giving helps you: 

  • Never miss a day of reward in the best 10 days. 
  • Plan your donations with purpose and ease. 
  • Honour the sacred traditions of Dhul Hijjah. 
  • Share your blessings with those in need around the world. 

Don’t let these sacred days pass without making the most of them. Set your intentions, schedule your giving, and allow your generosity to echo through the best days of the year.
