[quote]&quot;If a Muslim commits a sin, he must hasten to repent at once, without delay, firstly because he does not know when he will die, and secondly because one evil deed leads to another. 
Repentance at special times is very important because in most cases people’s thoughts turn towards worship at these times, and they are keen to do good, which leads to them recognizing their sins and feeling regret for the past. 
Repentance is obligatory at all times, but when the Muslim combines sincere repentance with good deeds during the days of most virtue, this is a sign of success, in sha Allaah. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): &quot;But as for him who repented, believed and did righteous deeds, then he will be among those who are successful.&quot; [al-Qasas 28:67]
[blue]Also on yaum e arafa’ Allah swt  forgives his slaves. May Allah swt make us one of those who are forgiven on this occasion.
The Muslim should make sure that he does not miss any of these important occasion, because time is passing quickly. Let her/him prepare himself by doing good deeds which will bring him reward when s/he is most in need of it, for no matter how much reward s/he earns, s/he will find it is less than s/he needs;[/blue] [purple]the time of departure is at hand, the journey is frightening, delusions are widespread, and the road is long, but Allaah is ever watchful, and to Him will we return and render account.[/purple] As the Qur’aan says (interpretation of the meaning): 
&quot;So whosoever does good equal to the weight of an atom, shall see it,
And whosoever does evil equal to the weight of an atom, shall see it.&quot;
[al-Zalzalah 99:7-8]
There is much to be gained, so make the most of the opportunity afforded by these invaluable and irreplaceable ten days. Let us hasten to do good works, before death strikes, before one can regret one’s negligence and failure to act, before one is asked to return to a place where no prayers will be answered, before death intervenes between the hopeful one and the things he hopes for, before you are trapped with your deeds in the grave.&quot;
