1. One should prepare for it by bathing, wearing  one’s best clothing and perfuming oneself.

2. It is Sunnah to eat dates before Eid al-Fitr prayer – as for Eid al-Aḍḥā then it is Sunnah to eat after the prayer.

3. It is Sunnah to make the takbir from when an individual leaves his home and he should raise his voice with it. As for women, they pronounce it silently.

4. It is Sunnah to go out to Ṣalāt al-Eid via walking.

5. It is Sunnah that one leaves Ṣalāt al-Eid via a path other than  the path they came from.

6. It is legislated to pray Ṣalāt al-Eid after sunrise when the sun rises to the length of a spear above the horizon.

7. There is no adhān or iqāmah for Ṣalāt al-Eid.

8. If Eid day falls on Jumu’ah then Jumu’ah is not obligatory upon the one who prayed Ṣalāt al-Eid.

9. It is recommended to make up Ṣalāt al-Eid  with its description for the  one who  missed it with the Muslims.

10. There is no problem with people visiting  each other and saying  to each other “taqabbal Allāh minnā wa minkum – may Allah accept from us and you.”

11. The day of Eid is the day of happiness.

12. Beware, my Muslim brother, of falling into that  which opposes  the Sharī’ah (i.e. sins, innovation, etc).
