Eid-ul-Adha being within the blessed ten days of Zul Hijjah

· 22 Dhuʻl-Hijjah 1447 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

Does the virtue of worship etc. in the first 10 days of Zul Hijjah also include Eidhul Adhaa? i.e. there is great reward for worship on the day of Eid too?

I'm aware Eid is the 10th, but I haven't heard anyone saying Eid is also included in the blessed 10 days, and hence should be taken advantage of too.

Answer

Yes, it also includes the tenth of Zul Hijjah.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
