"There is no day on which Allah frees people from the Fire more so than on the day of 'Arafah. He comes close to those (people standing on 'Arafah), and then He revels before His Angels saying, ‘What are these people seeking." (Muslim)

If you are unable to fast all 9 days plan to fast on the day of Arafat.The day of Arafat is the 9^th day of Dhul Hijjah and will fall on the 28^th, June 2023 Also plan to make a lot of dhikr, you can keep it simple and stick to the Tahleel (La ilaha il-lal-laah), Takbeer (Allahu Akbar), Tahmeed (Alhamdulillah) and Tasbeeh (Subhanallah) and also make taubah and seek Allah’s forgiveness.

Ibn ‘Abbaas (RA) reported that the Prophet (PBUH) said: “There are no days in which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allah than these 10 days.”

The people asked, “Not even jihad for the sake of Allah?”

He said, “Not even jihad for the sake of Allah, except in the case of a man who went out to fight giving himself and his wealth up for the cause and came back with nothing.” - Bukhaari, 2/457
