Question:
My dear, I have a question for you, may you live long. All right, turn off the television, my eyes. I am not far from the television, may Allah keep you. Just a moment, because there is an echo on your phone; there is interference between us. Call again. Honorable Shaykh, from the questions that have come in, this questioner says: What is the virtue of the ten days of Dhul-Hijjah and what has been reported regarding them? And is it permissible to fast the entire ten days of Dhul-Hijjah?

Answer:
Yes, the first ten days of Dhul Hijjah have a great virtue. Yes. They are the best of days; they are the best of days, so they have a great virtue. One enlivens them by remembering Allah with takbir (saying Allahu Akbar), and it is recommended to fast them, as in the hadith of Hafsa (may Allah be pleased with her). It is recommended to fast them, and it is recommended to increase the remembrance of Allah in them with takbir and du'a (supplication). Yes.
