The Pillars of Hajj 1- Ihram: The Prophet ﷺ said: “Deeds are according to intentions and every person will be rewarded according to his intention. Therefore, whosoever has emigrated for the sake of Allah and His Messenger, then his emigration was for Allah and His Messenger. And whosoever emigrated for the sake of a worldly gain, or a woman “whom he desires” to marry, then his emigration is for the sake of that which “moved him” to emigrate.” [ Source: Bukhari.] 2- The Sa’y between as-Safa and al-Marwa: From the Prophet’s statement ﷺ “Perform Sa’y (between them) for indeed Allah has decreed that you perform Sa’y (between them).” [ Source: Ahmad.] 3- Waqfat ‘Arafah (the standing on Arafah) because the Prophet ﷺ said: “Hajj is ‘Arafah.” 4- Tawaaful Ifaadah: Allah said: “…and circumambulate the Ancient House.” (al-Hajj: 29) https://www.islamkingdom.com/en/the-pillars-of-hajj-its-obligatory-aspects-and-supererogatory-acts

The prophet pbuh has said "there are no 10 days on which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allah than these 10 days" The sahaba asked "not even jihad" and the prophet replied, "not even jihaad unless a man goes out for jihad with all his wealth and does not come back with anything!"
