The Eid
that is celebrated at the end of the month of Ramadhan is called Eid-ul-Fitr
and the Eid that is celebrated on the tenth day of the Islamic month Zul-Hajj
is called Eid-ul-Ażhā. There is an obligatory Prayer offered on both these
days.
The
following actions are a Sunnat on Eid day:- to wake up early in the morning,
have a bath, use a misvāk (toothstick), to dress nicely, put perfume on, to eat
a date or something sweet before attending the Eid Prayer, to give charity
before the Eid Prayer, to go early in the morning to the place where Eid Prayer
is to be offered, to walk to the place of Eid Prayer, to go one way and come
back through a different route, to offer Nafl Prayers in the mosque or the
house before the Eid Prayer.
KHWAJA SHAMSUDDIN AZEEMI
Mehrāj means to enter the world of the unseen. When a believer attains Mehrāj through prayer, Angels appear in front of him. He travels through the Heavens, and through the blessings of the Holy Prophet (pbuh) he comes to know his Lord.
