Question:
May Allah reward you. You are asking: Is fasting on the tenth of Dhul-Hijjah recommended?

Answer:
The tenth day coincides with the festival. Fasting on the day of the festival is forbidden. It is not permissible to fast on the two days of the festivals. What is fasted is the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah, meaning from the first day of the month to the ninth day, which is the Day of 'Arafah. As for the tenth day, it coincides with the day of the festival, so it is not permissible to fast on it. Yes.
