Day of ARAFAH : The Blessed Day

🌟Significance and Virtues of the Day of 
Arafah🌟

1⃣Fasting on the day of Arafah is an expiation for two years. :
The ninth day of Dhul-Hijjah is the day of ’Arafah, since it is on this day that the pilgrims gather at the mountain plain of ’Arafah, praying and supplicating to their Lord. It is mustahabb (highly recommended) for those who are not pilgrims to fast on this day, since the Prophet (sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) was asked about fasting on the day of ’Arafah, so he said, 
🔹“It expiates the sins (Minor) of the past year and the coming year.” [Muslim (no. 1162)]

Imaam at-Tirmidhee (d.275H) – rahimahullaah – said,
“The People of Knowledge consider it recommended to fast on the day of ’Arafah, except for those at ’Arafah.” 
[Muslim (no. 1348)]
2⃣Allaah Subhaanahu wa Ta'ala frees slaves from the fire on Arafat more than any other day:
SubhanAllaah.
3⃣Forgiveness of the Sins even if they are like the foam on the Sea:
As for you staying till the evening in Arafah, then Allaah descends to the sky of the Duniya and He boasts about you to the Angels, and says: ‘My slaves have come to Me, looking rough, from every deep valley hoping for My mercy, so if your sins were equivalent to the amount of sand or the drops of rain or like the foam on the sea I will forgive them. So go forth My slaves! Having forgiveness and for what or who you have interceded for.’
📚[Reported by at-Tabarani in his book “al-Kabeer"
4⃣It is the day on which the religion was perfected and Allaah’s Favour was completed:
 It was reported from ‘Umar ibn al-Khattaab (may Allaah be pleased with him) that a Jewish man said to him, “O Ameer al-Mu’mineen,. there is an aayah in your Book which you recite; if it had come to us Jews, we would have taken that.
