DEEDS ON 10 DAYS OF DHUL HIJJAH

Fasting during these days

From Abu Sa'id al-Khudri who said that Rasulullah (SAW) said: No servant (of Allah, the Most High) fasts one day in the Path of Allah, except that Allah, the Most High, removes his face from the Fire because of it (the distance of travelling) seventy years. [Bukhari and Muslim]

Qurban (sacrifice of animal)

It is related by A'isha (RA) that Rasulullah (SAW ) said, There is nothing dearer to Allah Ta'ala during the days of sacrifice than the sacrificing of animals. The sacrificed animal shall come on the day of Qiyamah with its horns, hair and hooves (to be weighed in reward). The sacrifice is accepted by Allah Ta'ala before the blood reaches the ground. Therefore sacrifice with an open and happy heart. [Tirmizhi, Ibn Majah]

Those who do the Qurban, refrain from cutting nails and hair

It has been narrated from Umm Salamah (RA) that Rasulullah (SAW) said: If you see the Hilal (new moon) of Zul-Hijjah, and any one of you wants to make a sacrifice, then he should not cut (anything) from his hair and his nails. [Muslim and others]
