Eid el Fitr in Egypt

Eid el Fitr in Egypt

Eid al-Fitr is an Islamic holiday that is on the first day of the month of Shawwal on which Muslims break their fast celebrating the completion of the fast worship in the month of Ramadan. It is one of the two Muslim holidays and the other is Eid al-Adha, one of the Hajj days on the tenth of the month of Dhu al-Hijjah. Muslims celebrated the first Eid al-Fitr in Islam in the second year of hijra after fasting the first Ramadan of that year. Fasting on the first day of Eid al-Fitr is forbidden.

Abu Dawud and al-Tirmidhi narrated in his Sunnah that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) presented the city and they had two days in which they played, "and the messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:" May Allaah Almighty replace you with them, better than the day of Fitr and the day of sacrifice," so saying the days of Eid al-Fitr is incorrect because it is only one day. And the feast day is a day of joy and joy, and the joys of believers in their life and beyond are thanks to their Lord, as Allah said: ق say thanks to Allah and his mercy, so let them rejoice, it is better than what they gather ٥٨ ﴾ [Jonah:58].

Eid al-Fitr is characterized by relieving the poor from asking by paying Zakat al-Fitr, which is due to every Muslim individual who has Food Day and night on the night of Eid and is performed before the Eid prayer. The first act of Eid will be the Eid prayer on the morning of Eid, about a third of an hour after sunrise, and Muslims meet on Eid, exchange congratulations, and visit their families and relatives, this is known as the womb link. A Muslim also visits his friends, receives his companions and neighbors, and sympathizes with the poor. It has been customary in many Islamic countries for Muslims to eat sweets and exchange them, such as dates or Eid cakes stuffed with dates, and others, depending on the country and its customs.

Naming
Ibn Al-Arabi said: that the name of Eid is Eid because it returns every year with renewed joy. Eid al-Fitr is so named because Muslims break their fast on after fasting the month of Ramadan.

Greeting
Jubayr Ibn Nafir said:

"When the Companions of the messenger of Allah met on the day of Eid, they would say to each other:' may Allah accept us and from you '" – Fateh al-Bari, 2-446
It has been customary in many Arab countries to congratulate by saying: your Eid is blessed, or every year you are well or one of the successful returnees.

Meaning and wisdom
The Muslim holidays have been distinguished from other holidays of ignorance by their proximity and obedience to Allah, in which they glorify Allah and remind him of him, such as Takbir on the two holidays, attending prayer in congregation and distributing Zakat al-Fitr, while showing joy and pleasure over the grace of the two holidays and the grace of completing fasting on Fitr. Muslims tolerate their holidays and associate them with their glories, and the spiritual dimension of the Islamic religion is achieved in Eid, and Eid is of a general and comprehensive nature that makes all people participate in achieving these meanings sensing their blessed effects and experiencing the events of Eid whenever time passes and Eid is renewed. Eid in Islam is not memories or special attitudes of elders and leaders, but every Muslim has a connection with Eid and a renewed reality over a lifetime.

On Eid, many of the social and human meanings of Islam are manifested, hearts converge on cordiality, people gather after parting, and they get along after woe. On Eid, we are reminded of the right of the weak in Islamic society so that the joy of Eid includes every home, and Grace pervades every family, and this is the goal of legislating "Sadaqa al-Fitr" on Eid al-Fitr. As for the human meaning of Eid, it is for large numbers of Muslims to share joy and pleasure at the same time, their union appears and many of them learn by meeting, so the nation converges on a common feeling, and this strengthens intellectual, spiritual and social ties.

The Prophet Muhammad has authorized Muslims on this day to show pleasure and confirm it by singing, beating with Tambourine, playing and having permissible fun.indeed, one of the hadiths states that showing this pleasure on holidays is a rite of this religion. that is why it was narrated from Ayad al-Asha'ari that he witnessed an Eid in Anbar. he said: what I have to see, do not sit still, they used to do in the time of the messenger of Allah. And the tradition is to beat with Tambourine and sing.

It was narrated from Aisha that she said: Abu Bakr walked in on her and the prophet then on the day of breaking the fast or became a sacrifice, and then two maidens sang what she had resisted the Ansar on the day of the Baath war, and Abu Bakr said: the devil's psalm is with the messenger of Allah! The Prophet said:"leave them, O father Bakr; for every people has a feast, and if this is our feast day". It was narrated from Anas that he said: the prophet gave Madinah and its people two days in which to play, and he said: "May Allah-Allah-replace you with them for the better of them; the day of Fitr and the day of sacrifice".

Holiday etiquette and its year
It enacts Takbir on Eid: and its formula is: Allahu akbar Allahu Akbar, this Takbir is not limited to prayers, but it is mustahabb in mosques, houses, roads, and markets, and Takbir on Eid al-Fitr begins from sunset on the night of Eid, and ends with the imam going out to the Eid prayer for prayer. Ibn Qudamah said in Al-Mughni: and they show Takbeer on the nights of Eid, and it is in the Fitr I confirm; to say to Allah: (may you complete the kit and may Allah be proud of what guides you and may you give thanks), and his sentence is that people should show Takbeer on the two nights of Eid in their mosques, houses and roads traveling or staying for the appearance of the mentioned verse. Al-Shafi'i said: that people grow up in al-Fitr when the sun goes down on the night of al-Fitr, individually and collectively, in any case, until the Imam goes out for the Eid prayer, and then they interrupt the takbir. As for the formula of magnification: one of the people of knowledge who sees that he grows up three in a row and says: Allaah is greater, Allaah is greater, Allaah is greater. Al-Nawawi said in total:the most desirable zoom formula: Allahu akbar Allahu akbar Allahu Akbar. This is the famous of the texts of Shafi'i. He said in the curriculum of the students: and his beloved formula: Allahu akbar Allahu akbar there is no God but Allah, and Allahu akbar Allahu Akbar and all praise be to Allah. Then he said, ' the Shafi'i said in a nutshell: the more he mentions Allah, the better. There is no God but Allah and we worship only him, faithful to his religion, even if the disbelievers hate, there is no God but Allah alone who believed his promise and the victory of his slave and the defeat of the parties alone, there is no God but Allah and Allah is greater. They argued to him that the Prophet said it on the Safa, and this hadith was narrated by a Muslim in a Sahih from the narration of Jabir ibn Abdullah, may Allah be pleased with them, is more accurate than this pronunciation. It's over. Ibn Qudamah said in Al-Mughni: the recipe for Takbir is: Allahu akbar Allahu akbar there is no God but Allah, and Allahu akbar Allahu Akbar and all praise be to Allah. And God knows.

Washing,
Washing for Eid is a sure Year for everyone, big and small, man and woman alike. It is permissible to wash for Eid before dawn in the most correct way, unlike washing on Friday.

It is stated in the book of the Singer by Ibn Qudamah al-Hanbali: that it is desirable to be cleansed by washing for Eid, and Ibn Umar used to wash on the day of Fitr, Ibn Abbas narrated, "that the messenger of Allah used to wash on the day of Fitr and sacrifice.»

It is also narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said on a Friday of the congregation:"This is a day that Allaah has made a feast for Muslims, so wash yourselves, and whoever has good, it will not harm him to touch it, and you shall have the toothache". Narrated by Majah's son. He likes to clean up, wear the best he can find, clean up, and shop.

Breakfast before prayer,
Similarly, it is Sunnah for a Muslim to start iftar before going out to pray on dates that he eats a chord; Anas said: the Prophet did not become Fitr day until he ate dates and ate them a chord" narrated by al-Bukhari and Ahmad.

Eid prayer,
It is also Sunnah on the day of Eid that all Muslims participate in attending the Eid prayer, even if some do not perform the prayer for a legitimate excuse. Umm, Atiyah narrated: the messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) ordered us to go out in the Fitr and sacrifice awwak, menstruation and women with numbness, as for menstruating women, they should retire from prayer and witness the good, and call Muslims. Jaber bin Abdullah describes the Eid prayer with the prophet and says:" I witnessed the Eid prayer with the messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), so he began to pray before the sermon without ears and no residence, then he leaned on Bilal, commanded the piety of Allaah and urged obedience to him, preached to people and reminded them, and then went on until the women came and preached to them " to the end of the Hadith.

The time of Eid prayer is two Rak'ahs, and its time is from sunrise to sunset, but it is better to delay it until the sun rises as much as a spear, that is, according to the opinion of the eye. If a person prays alone, two Rak'ahs (Rak'ahs) are recited, as in the Sunnah of the morning. In the first of the first Rak'ah after Takbir Al-ihram, seven takbirs are prescribed, and in the second Rak'ah there are five takbirs after Takbir al-Qaim, and he says between each two takbirs: “Hallelujah and praise be to Allah and there is no God but Allah and Allah is greater”. After the prayer, two sermons are delivered, in the first of which the preacher enlarges nine times, and in the second seven times. It is prescribed to go out early for the Eid prayer after the morning prayer, except the Khatib is late to the time of prayer, walking is better than riding, and whoever has an excuse is fine to ride, and washing is prescribed and enters his time at midnight, dressing up in clothes and others, and doing well, and this is for men, but women hate to go out dressed and decorated.

It is also permissible to go to the Eid prayer from one way, and return to his home from another way, so that the steps will be more, and more people will watch him, for Jabir ibn Abdullah —he said: "if the Prophet was on a day of Eid, he would cross the road" and the Eid prayer is two Rak'ahs, in the first he would grow seven except for the takbir of Ihram, he would raise his hands in it, and in the second five except for the takbir of doing, and it is permissible for a group, and in private, the time between sunrise and sunset. And it is permissible to recite in them after the Fatiha with a Waqf and the moon, or the highest (praise in the name of your supreme lord) and the ghashiya. The imam then gives two sermons, in the opening of the first sermon he grows a scar nine, and in the opening of the second he grows seven. As for the ruling on the Eid prayer, it is enough to impose, and it was said for a certain year.
