Acts of Worship During Menstruation in Dhul-Hijjah

Salam alaikum sisters, I just started my period on the first day of Dhul-Hijjah and honestly felt a bit disappointed because I was really looking forward to pushing myself with some extra goals this month. But alhamdulillah, I know Allah's plan is always better. Could you share different ways I can still do ibadah while on my cycle? I've noted down a few ideas, but since I'm a revert, I'm worried there might be some I haven't come across yet. Jazakallah khair for any suggestions!

Wa alaikum salam! You can still do so much: dhikr, dua, reading tafsir, listening to Quran, giving charity. Don’t feel down-your intention alone brings reward.

Sis, I’m in the same boat! Honestly, making a lot of dua and istighfar has been my go-to. Also feeding fasting people or just being extra kind counts.

Make a lot of dua for the hujjaj! That’s such a beautiful way to connect with Dhul-Hijjah. And don’t underestimate just talking to Allah.

I’m a revert too and learned recently we can still make dua and say specific adhkar. Look up ‘Hisnul Muslim’-it’s so helpful. Stay strong, sis!

You can listen to Qur'an recitation or beneficial lectures. Also, use this time for deep reflection and shukr. Those are powerful acts.

Salam! Reading hadith and sending salawat upon the Prophet ﷺ are great. Also, cooking for others who are fasting, or making iftar for them.

Don’t forget sadaqah! Even a smile is charity. And you can still make dhikr with tasbih. May Allah accept from us.
