A thread on the day of "Arafah"

The Prophet ﷺ said, ’There is no day on which Allah frees people from the Fire more so than on the Day of ‘Arafah. Indeed, He draws near and then boasts of them to the angels then says, “What do these want?“’ [Muslim]

It is when the religion of Islam was perfected.
Allah says in Qur'an:
Today I have perfected for you your religion and completed upon you My blessing and I have chosen for you Islam as [your] religion” (5:3)
This verse was revealed on the day of Arafah.

On day of Arafah, Pilgrims travel to the plains of Arafat,where they will combine their Dhuhr and Asr prayers and then spend the entire day making du’a
This is the most important ritual of the Hajj, without which the Hajj would be incomplete.The Prophet ﷺ said, ’Hajj is ‘Arafah’

It is the Day of Ḥajj and the essence of the pilgrimage. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Ḥajj is Arafah", -(Nasai), meaning it's all about that day.

It is a day whose fasting expiates the minor sins of the year before and the year after - one single day's fast equivalent to two year's of forgiveness!! There is no other day like it in the whole year.

It is a Day of Forgiveness and of being freed from Jahannam. We learn in the ḥadīth that on no single day are more people forgiven or saved from Jahannam than on this Day.

It is a Day that Shayṭān himself feels the most humiliated and despised as he sees the Mercy of Allah descending down.
Simply ,"The best day of the year is the Day of Arafah" [Ibn Ḥibbān]
So make sure that you take advantage of that Day, do lots of takbīr, du`ā,, etc
