"Sunah Fasting before Eid al-Adha"

There are three recommended voluntary fasts to be performed by Muslims before the arrival of Eid al-Adha. What are these fasts?

"Fasting in the Month of Dhu al-Hijjah"

According to its name, this voluntary fasting is performed in the month of Dzulhijjah before the arrival of Eid al-Adha. More precisely, it is performed from the 1st to the 9th of Dzuhijjah. Fasting on the 8th of Dzuhijjah is called Tarwiyah fasting. Meanwhile, fasting on the 9th of Dzuhijjah is called Arafah fasting. The Prophet Muhammad said, "There is no other day that Allah SWT loves for worship like these 10 days." (HR. At-Tirmidzi)

"Intention of Fasting in the Month of Dhu al-Hijjah"

The following is a reading of the intention to fast in the month of Dzuhijjah that is important for Muslims to know as quoted from nu.or.id:

Niat Puasa di Bulan Dzuhijjah

Intention of Fasting from the 1st to the 7th of Dhu al-Hijjah

I intend to fast the sunnah of the month of Dzulhijjah today for Allah ta'ala.

               

Intention of Fasting on Tarwiyah Day (8 Dhu al-Hijjah)

I intend to fast the Tarwiyah sunnah today for the sake of Allah ta'ala.

               

Intention of Fasting on Arafah Day (9th Dhu al-Hijjah)

I intend to fast the sunnah of Arafah today for the sake of Allah ta'ala.

               

"The Virtues of Fasting in Dhu al-Hijjah"

"For friends of Dream who observe voluntary fasting in the month of Dhu al-Hijjah, there are several virtues that you can obtain as follows:"

1. Multiplied the rewards

The first virtue is that the rewards are multiplied compared to worship in other months. The Prophet Muhammad said, "There are no days in which Allah likes to be worshipped more than the first ten days of the month of Dhu al-Hijjah. Fasting for one day during this period is equivalent to fasting for one year, and praying during one night is equivalent to praying on the Night of Power." (Narrated by At-Tirmidhi)

2. The sin is forgiven.

The next virtue of fasting the sunnah in the month of Dhu al-Hijjah is that it erases sins. That is, fasting on the 9th of Dhu al-Hijjah is able to erase sins for two years. The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said, "Fasting on Arafah (9th of Dhu al-Hijjah) can erase sins from the previous year and the coming year. Fasting on Ashura (10th of Muharram) will erase sins from the previous year." (Narrated by Muslim)

3. Liberation Day from the Torment of Narakas

The last virtue of fasting in Dzuhijjah is being freed from the fire of Hell on that day compared to other days. The Prophet Muhammad said: "There is no day on which Allah frees His servants from the Hellfire more than on the Day of Arafah, and He approaches and boasts about them to the angels, saying: 'What do they desire?'" (Narrated by Muslim)
