As-Salaamu`Alaykum ISWV Family,
TOMORROW is the Day of Arafah. This is the day the Prophet said:
"There is no day when Allah sets free more servants from Hell than the Day of Arafah" Muslim.
"Fast the Day of Arafah, for indeed I anticipate that Allah will forgive (the sins) of the year after it, and the year before it" Tirmidhi
Suggested things to do for the day of Arafah:
1. Go to bed early tonight so you can wake up for Qiyam.
2. Get up at least an hour before Fajr and pray a few Raka'as slowly, making plenty of Dua'a in sujood.
3. FAST, have Suhoor and spend two minutes before Fajr making Istighfar.
4. Sit from Fajr to Sunrise and make dhikr.
5. Then pray Salatul Doha to earn the reward of Hajj and Umrah.
6. Pray on time and pray all your Sunnah prayers.
7. Do your morning and evening adkar
8. Keep your tongue busy with the remembrance of Allah throughout the entire day.
9. Make lots of dua'a throughout the day and reflect upon the (use the duaa provided above)
Remember all the Muslims of the world.
The best dua'a on the day of Arafah:
La ilah ill` Allah,wahdahu la sharika lahu Lahul mulk walahul hamd, wahua `ala kulli shayinqadeer.
"There is no god but Allah, alone, with no partner or associate. To Him belongs the dominion, and to Him belongs all praise, and He is All-Powerful over everything."
10. Before Maghreb is one of the best times for dua'a to be accepted. Ask Allah to cleanse your heart of all ailments and to save you from the hellfire.
- Read the Quran while reflecting on each verse.
12. Give Sadaqa
13. Show kindness to your Parents
