Islamic Festival Eid ul Azha - Rituals and Sunnah of Eid Prayer

Eid al'Azha

 Eid al'Azha also called the Feast of the Sacrifice, the "Major Festival", the "Greater Eid", Baqr'Eid  is the second of two religious holidays celebrated by Muslims worldwide each year. It honors the willingness of Abraham (Ibrahim) to sacrifice his promised son, Ishmael (Ismail)a, as an act of submission to God's command, before God then intervened, through his angel Jibra'il and informs him that his sacrifice has already been accepted. The meat from the sacrificed animal is preferred to be divided into three parts. The family retains one third of the share; another third is given to relatives, friends and neighbors; and the remaining third is given to the poor and needy.

In the lunar-based Islamic calendar, Eid al-Adha falls on the 10th day of Dhu al-Hijjah and lasts for four days. In the international (Gregorian) calendar, the dates vary from year to year, drifting approximately 11 days earlier each year.

Eid al-Adha is the latter of the two Eid holidays, the former being Eid al-Fitr. The basis for the observance comes from the 196th ayah (verse) of Al-Baqara, the second sura of the Quran. The word "Eid" appears once in Al-Ma'ida, the fifth sura of the Quran, with the meaning "solemn festival".

Like Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha begins with a Sunnah prayer of two rakats followed by a sermon (khutbah). Eid al-Adha celebrations start after the descent of the Hujjaj, the pilgrims performing the Hajj, from Mount Arafat, a hill east of Mecca. Eid sacrifice may take place until sunset on the 13th day of Dhu al-Hijjah. The days of Eid have been singled out in the Hadith as "days of remembrance". The takbir (days) of Tashriq are from the Fajr prayer of the 9th of Dhu al-Hijjah up to the Asr prayer of the 13th of Dhu al-Hijjah (5 days and 4 nights). This equals 23 prayers: 5 on the 9th�12th, which equals 20, and 3 on the 13th.

Eid prayers

Muslims go to the mosque to pray the prayer of the Eid.


When is it performed

The Eid al-Adha prayer is performed any time after the sun completely rises up to just before the entering of Zuhr time, on the 10th of Dhu al-Hijjah. In the event of a force majeure (e.g. natural disaster), the prayer may be delayed to the 11th of Dhu al-Hijjah and then to the 12th of Dhu al-Hijjah.

The Sunnah of preparation

In keeping with the tradition of Muhammad, Muslims are encouraged to prepare themselves for the occasion of Eid. Below is a list of things Muslims are recommended to do in preparation for the Eid al-Adha festival:

• Make wudhu (ablution) and offer Salat al-Fajr (the pre-sunrise prayer).

• Prepare for personal cleanliness�take care of details of clothing, etc.

• Dress up, putting on new or best clothes available.

Rituals of the Eid prayers

The scholars differed concerning the ruling on Eid prayers. There are three scholarly points of view:

That Eid prayer is Sunnah mu�akkadah (recommended). This is the view of Malik ibn Anas and Al-Shafi�i.

That it is a Fard Kifaya (communal obligation). This is the view of Ab? ?an?fa.

That it is Wajib on all Muslim men (a duty for each Muslim and is obligatory for men); those who do not do it with no excuse are considered sinners. This is the view of Ahmad ibn Hanbal, and was also narrated from Ab? ?an?fa.

Eid prayers must be offered in congregation. It consists of two rakats (units) with seven Takbirs in the first Raka'ah and five Takbirs in the second Raka'ah. For Sunni Muslims, Salat al-Eid differs from the five daily canonical prayers in that no adhan (call to prayer) or iqama (call) is pronounced for the two Eid prayers. The salat (prayer) is then followed by the khutbah, or sermon, by the Imam.

At the conclusion of the prayers and sermon, Muslims embrace and exchange greetings with one other (Eid Mubarak), give gifts (Eidi) to children, and visit one another. Many Muslims also take this opportunity to invite their non-Muslim friends, neighbours, co-workers and classmates to their Eid festivities to better acquaint them about Islam and Muslim culture.

The Takbir and other rituals

The Takbir is recited from the dawn of the ninth of Dhu al-Hijjah to the thirteenth, and consists of:

All?hu akbar, All?hu akbar ���� ���� ���� ����
l? il?ha ill? All?h �� ��� ��� ����
WAll?hu akbar, All?hu akbar ���� ���� ���� ����
wa li-ill?hil-hamd ���� �����
God is the Greatest, God is the Greatest,
There is no deity but God
God is the Greatest, God is the Greatest
and to God goes all praise

Lailatul Qadr Prayer - All About Lailatul Qadar (The Night of Power)

What is Lailatul Qadar?

Laylat al-Qadr as the Night of Destiny, Night of Power, Night of Value, the Night of Decree, or Night of Measures, is in Islamic belief the night when the first verses of the Quran were revealed to the Islamic prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H). It is one of the odd nights of the last ten days of Ramadan. Muslims believe that on this night, God blesses everyone, forgives all sins, grants all prayers, and angels come down to earth.

Sunnah of the Night:

Muslims often offer extra prayers on this day, particularly the night prayer. They awake, pray, and hope Allah will give them anything they may desire on this night. Mostly, they perform tilawat (reading the Quran).

Those who can afford to devote their time in the remembrance of Allah stay in the mosque for the final ten days of Ramadan. This worship is called I'tikaf. They observe a fast during the day and occupy themselves with the remembrance of Allah, performing voluntary prayers and studying the Quran, day and night, apart from the obligatory prayers which they perform with the congregation. Food and other necessities of life are provided for them during their stay in the mosque. Devoting time to remember Allah, Muslims also hope to receive divine favors and blessings connected with Lailat ul-Qadr.

Qur'an says:

    We have indeed revealed this (Message) in the Night of Power:
    And what will explain to thee what the night of power is?
    The Night of Power is better than a thousand months.
    Therein come down the angels and the Spirit by Allah's permission, on every errand:
    Peace!...This until the rise of dawn!
    �Sura 97 (Al-Qadr), ?y?t 1-5

 �We sent it (Quran) down on a blessed Night. Verily,We are ever warning. Therein ( in that Night) is decreed every matter of ordainment. Amran (i.e. a command or this Quran or His Decree of every matter) from Us. Verily, We are ever sending (the Messenger) (As) a Mercy from your Lord.� (Ad-Dukhaan 44: 3-6)

The whole month of Ramadan is a period of spiritual training wherein believers devote much of their time to fasting, praying, reciting the Quran, remembering Allah, and giving charity. However because of the revealed importance of this night, Muslims strive [give more effort] harder in the last ten days of Ramadan since the Laylat al-Qadr could be one of the odd-numbered days in these last ten (the first, third, fifth, seventh or ninth). Normally, some Muslims from each community perform i'tik?f in the mosque: they remain in the mosque for the last ten days of the month for prayers and recitation. Women also observe i'tikaf. They remain in prayer and meditation mostly, although they are allowed to do the minimum domestic work to run the family .When Muhammed (P.B.U.H) observed i'tikaf in a tent, he saw a few tents around his. His wives joined him by pitching tents .

Hadith on The Night of Power:

�Allah�s Messenger (P.B.U.H) used to practice Itikaaf in the last ten nights and say: �Seek out Lailatul-Qadr in the (odd nights) of the last ten days of Ramadhan.� (Bukhari, Muslim)

�Allah�s Messenger (P.B.U.H) said: �Seek it in the last ten, and if one of you is too weak or unable then let him not allow that to make him miss the final seven.� (Bukhari, Muslim)

�Whoever stands in (Prayer) in Lailatul-Qadr out of Eemaan and seeking reward then his previous sins are forgiven.� (Bukhari)

It is prescribed to supplicate a great in Lailatul Qadr. It is reported from Aisha (R.A):

�O Messenger of Allah! What if I knew which night Lailatul-Qadr was, then what should I say in it?� He said: �Say: Allaahumma innaka �affuwwun tuhibbul �afwa fa�fu �annee.� (O Allah, You are forgiving and You love forgiveness, so forgive me).� (at-Tirmidhi)
