    20 Sunnah’s to do on Eid



    1. To awaken earlier than usual

    2. To brush the teeth with Miswaak

    3. To have a bath (Ghusl)

    4. To be dressed in one's best clothes (Doesn’t necessarily have to be new)

    5. To be dressed modestly in an Islamic manner.

    Note: Care should be taken that we do not incur debts or transgress the limits of modesty regarding the clothes we purchase and wear on Eid day as is seen in many Muslim communities of today. Many of our brothers are seen with unsuitable haircuts and inappropriate clothing and many of sisters are seen dressed provocatively attracting unwanted attention and the gaze of strange men upon them. What would happen if we were to die in such a state? Therefore we should adopt modesty in every aspect of our lives particularly the way in which we dress.

    6. To use Attar (Perfume)

    7. To perform Eid Salah at the Eidgah (An open ground)

    8. Avoid eating before Eid Salah on the day of Eid ul Adha and to eat an odd number of dates or anything sweet on the day of Eid ul Fitr

    9. To go to the place of Eid Salah early

    10. To walk to the place of Eid Salah (If it is within walking distance because every step is reward)

    11. To read aloud “Takbeerat” on the way to the place of prayer for Eid-ul-Adha and silently for Eid-ul-Fitr:

    allahuak 1 - 20 Sunnah’s to do on Eid

    “Allaahu Akbar Allaahu Akbar Laa ilaaha illallaahu Wallaahu Akbar walillaahil hamd”.


    12. To use different routes to and from the place of Eid Salaah

    13. To frequently read the takbeers (Loudly for Eid Ul Adha and softly for Eid ul Fitr)

    14. To pray the Eid-Ul-Fitr prayer later and the Eid-ul-Adha earlier.

    15. To read two rak’ahs Waajib Salaatul Eidain without any Adhaan or Iqaamah

    16. It is forbidden to pray Nafil prayer before or after the prayer.

    17. To read the two rak’ahs Nafl prayer on reaching home.

    18. The khutba of both Eids are Sunnah but to listen to them is Wajib (Compulsory). It is totally prohibited (Haraam) to walk around, talk or even read Salaah whilst the khutba is in progress.

    19. To shake hands and hug one another on happy occasions is Mubaah (permissible). The general principle of a Mubaah act is not to regard the act as compulsory as that projects a wrong image of Deen. Furthermore, people should not regard the meeting on the day of Eid as compulsory and an inseparable part of the occasion.

    (SUNNATS, Mufti E. M. H. Salejee pg 89, 90)


    20. To greet on another with the following on Eid:

    Jabyr ibn Nufayr (Ra) said: 'When the companions of Allah's Messenger (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) met on the day of Eid, they would say to each other:

    'Taqaballahu minna wa mink

    (May Allah accept from us and you)." [Al Mahamiliyyat; hasan isnad; see Fath ul Bari 2:446

    Re: The Sunnah’s of Eid

    Eid Night - The night of Prize giving


    The Messenger of Allah Muhammad is reported to have said: “And then the night of Eidul fitr, the night that is called Laylatul Jaa’izah(night of prize giving), comes along. On the morning of Eid Allah sends down the Malaa’ikah(angels) to all the lands of the earth where they take their positions at access points of roads, calling out with a voice that is heard by all except man and jinn, “O Ummah of Muhammad(Salallaho alaihe wassallam), come forth from your houses towards a Lord that is noble and gracious, who grants much and pardons the major sins.” When they proceed towards the places for their Eid salaah, Allah says to the Malaa’ikah: “What indeed is the reward of that employee who had rendered his services?” The Malaa’ikah reply’ “O Lord and Master, it is only right that he should receive his reward in full for his services.” Allah then says, “I call you to witness, O My Malaa’ikah, that for their having fasted during the month of Ramadhaan, and for their having stood in prayer by night, I have granted to them as reward My pleasure and have granted them forgiveness. O My servants ask now of Me, for I swear by My honour and My greatness, that whatsoever you shall beg of me this day in this assembly of yours for the needs of the Hereafter, I shall grant you; and whatsoever you shall ask for worldly needs, I shall look at you favourably. By My honour I swear, as long as you shall obey my commands, I shall cover your faults. By My honour and by My greatness do I swear that I shall never disgrace you among the evil-doing ones and disbelievers. Depart now from here, you are forgiven. You have pleased Me, and I am pleased with you. The Malaa’ikah an seeing this great reward bestowed by Allah upon the Ummah of Muhammad (Salallaho alaihe wassallam) on the day of Eidul Fitr become greatly pleased and happy.” (Hadith-Targheeb)

    The the night before Eid, is a very important night and we should at least spend part of it in the worship of Allah. Despite all the other work we have, we should not lose the blessing of this night, because this is a such a night that who so ever remains awake on this night in the worship of his Lord, Allah, his heart will not die on the day when hearts will die?”

    On the day of Judgement when hearts will nearly die out of fear, this person will be free of such fear and anguish. Also, that person who remembers Allah is like a living person and the one who doesn’t is like a dead person. So to emphasise – this is a very important night that we often forget because we are too busy preparing for the next day or have already started celebrating Eid.

    So let us thank Allah on the night of Eid and ask of him for forgiveness and acceptanceof our good deeds during Ramadan.

    Re: 20 Sunnah’s to do on Eid

    Upon the end of this blessed month of Ramadan, it is clear that:

    - We can continue to fast on Mondays & Thursdays to benefit from the physical & spiritual effects of fasting throughout the year!

    - We can continue to awaken before Fajr to pray a few Rakats & make Dua, to maintain closeness to Allah throughout the year!

    - To not put the Quran away to gather dust but just like we recited it throughout this month then to continue to recite even if it is a page a day throughout the year!

    - To continue to give charity to the poor & needy whatever is in our capacity throughout the year!

    - To continue praying at the Masjids just like we prayed long Taraweeh prayers throughout this month then there is no reason why we cannot pray short Fard prayers at our local Masjids throughout the year!

    - One of the main signs of an accepted Ramadan is that we continue to implement the good we acquired throughout the year!

    Re: 20 Sunnah’s to do on Eid

    Eid on Lockdown:

    Due to the lockdown being implemented in many countries Eid will be different this year than previous years. However the believers never lose out and inshaAllah we will still be rewarded for doing all of the Sunnah's of this day including attending the Masjid/open ground for Eid prayer if that is our normal practice.

    May Allah accept our good deeds, forgive us all our sins and enable us to hold onto the good we acquired from this blessed month throughout the year until next Ramadan. Ameen

    Asalaamu Alaikum,

    It is forbidden to fast on five days in the Islamic calendar i.e. Eid-ul-Fitr (the first of Shawwal), Eid-ul-Adha (the tenth of Zul-Hijjah) and the three days of Tashreeq (three days after Eid-ul-Adha-11-12-13 of Zul-Hijjah). (Al Ikhtiyaar Li Ta’leelil Mukhtaar 1/125)

    The prohibition of fasting on the three days of Tashreeq (three days after Eid-ul-Adha-11-12-13 of Zul-Hijjah) refers to fasting three days after Eid-ul-Adha (the tenth of Zul-Hijjah). It does not refer to fasting three days after Eid-ul-Fitr (the first of Shawwal). Hence, it is permissible to fast immediately after Eid-ul-Fitr (the first of Shawwal) even if it is three days after Eid-ul-Fitr (the first of Shawwal).

    Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
