Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ مِنْ الشِّعْرِ حُكْمًا وَإِنَّ مِنْ الْبَيَانِ سِحْرًا.
English Translation
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 'No days are more beloved to Allah for good deeds than the ten days (of Dhul-Hijjah).' They said: 'Not even jihad in the way of Allah?' He said: 'Not even jihad, except a man who goes out with his life and wealth and returns with neither.'
