EID A’Aamal
1. Recite Takbeeraat (1st Shawwaal night duas page)
2. Give Zakaat-e-Fitra, which is 3 kilograms of the item commonly eaten per person in the house and it is better give it before Namaaz-e-Eed. This is an emphasized Waajib, it is a means of acceptance of our A’amaal during Maahe Ramadhaan and it is also a safeguard against death.
3. Make Ghusl. And recite this Duaa before it: Allaahumma Eemanan Bika Wa Tasdeeqan Bi Kitaabika Wa Ittibaa’a Sunnati Nabiyyika Muhammadin Swallallaahu Alayhi Wa Aalihee.
O Allah, believing in Thee, fully aware of Thy Book, following the way of life of Thy Prophet Muhammad, Allah's blessings be on him and on his children, (I take bath). | all¡humma ¢m¡nan bika wa ta¥d¢dan bikit¡bika wattib¡`a sunnati nabiyyika mu¦ammadin ¥all¡ all¡hu `layhi wa ¡lihi | Çááøåõãø ÅöíãóÇäÇð Èößó æóÊóÕúÏöíÞÇð ÈößöÊóÇÈößó æóÇÊøÈóÇÚó ÓõäøÉö äóÈöíøßó ãõÍóãøÏò Õóáøóì Çááøåõ Úóáóíúåö æóÂáöåö. |
Then recite Bismillaah… and start making Ghusl, after finishing recite this Duaa: Allaahummaj’alhoo Kaffaaratan Li Dhunoobee Wa Twahhir Deenee Allaahumma Adh’hib Annid-Danas.
O Allah let me make amends and compensate for my wrong doings, (so that) my religion becomes pure and O Allah remove the dirt from me. | all¡humma ij`alhu kaff¡rattan lidhun£b¢ wa §ahhir d¢n¢ all¡humma adh-hib `anniya alddanasa | Çááøåõãø ÇÌúÚóáúåõ ßóÝøóÇÑóÉð áöÐõäõæÈöí æóØóåøÑú Ïöíäöí. Çááøåõãø ÃóÐúåöÈú Úóäøí ÇáÏøäóÓó. |
4. Recite Eed-Salaat.
5. Recite Ziyaarat of Imam Husayn (A.S.)6. Recite Duaa-e-Nudbaa. Sayyid Ibn ±¡w£s has instructed, saying: After recitation of the Du`¡' al-Nudbah, prostrate yourself and say the following:
ÃóÚõæÐõ Èößó ãöäú äóÇÑò ÍóÑøåóÇ áÇ íõØúÝÃõ | a`£dhu bika min n¡rin ¦arruh¡ l¡ yu§fa'u | I seek refuge with Thee from the Fire whose hot flames do not get extinguished or grow dim, |

æóÚóØúÔóÇäõåóÇ áÇ íõÑúæóì. | wa `a§sh¡nuh¡ l¡ yurw¡ | wherein parched throats never get quenched. |
You may then put your right cheek on the ground and say the following:
O Allah do not throw me down head on into the Fire after I have prostrated in adoration before Thee and thrown myself on the ground to humble myself before Thee; it is not a show of favour from me unto Thee but it is (Thy) merciful benevolence Thou bestows on me. | il¡h¢ l¡ tuqallib wajhiya finn¡ri ba`da suj£d¢ wa ta`f¢r¢ laka bighayri mannin minn¢ `alayka bal laka almannu `alayya | Åöáåöí áÇ ÊõÞóáøÈú æóÌúåöí Ýöí ÇáäøóÇÑö ÈóÚúÏó ÓõÌõæÏöí æóÊóÚúÝöíÑöí áóßó ÈöÛóíúÑö ãóäø ãöäøí Úóáóíúßó Èóáú áóßó Çáúãóäø Úóáóíø. |
You may then put your left cheek on the ground and say the following:
Have mercy on him who has transgressed and committed blunders, (but) now ashamed surrenders (to Thee) to receive absolution. | ir¦am man as¡'a waqtarafa wastak¡na wa`tarafa | ÇÑúÍóãú ãóäú ÃóÓóÇÁó æóÇÞúÊóÑóÝó æóÇÓúÊóßóÇäó æóÇÚúÊóÑóÝó. |
You may then return to the (ordinary) prostration and say the following:
I am a troublesome servant but Thou art the bountiful Lord-Nourisher. A great many mistakes have been committed by Thy servant but O Compassionate, from Thee (only) Lenient treatment is expected. | in kuntu bi'sa al`abdu fa anta ni`ma alrrabbu `a¨uma aldhdhanbu min `abdika falya¦sun al`afwa min `indika y¡ kar¢mu | Åöäú ßõäúÊõ ÈöÆúÓó ÇáúÚóÈúÏõ ÝóÃóäúÊó äöÚúãó ÇáÑøÈø¡ ÚóÙõãó ÇáÐøäúÈõ ãöäú ÚóÈúÏößó ÝóáúíóÍúÓõäö ÇáúÚóÝúæõ ãöäú ÚöäúÏößó íóÇ ßóÑöíãõ. |
You may then repeat the following one hundred times:
(I plead for) pardon; (I plead for) pardon. | al`afwa al`afwa | ÇóáúÚóÝúæó¡ ÇóáúÚóÝúæó |
Sayyid Ibn ±¡w£s, then, adds, "Do not spend this day with entertainment and negligence while you do not know whether your deeds have been accepted or rejected. Rather, if you hope of acceptance of your deeds, you must show thanks; and if you anticipate rejection, you must be intensely sad."
It is recommended not to leave one’s house for joining the congregational `«d al-Fi§r Prayer before sunrise. It is also recommended to say the supplications that have been mentioned by Sayyid Ibn ±¡w£s in "Iqb¡l al-A`m¡l". One of these supplications is that Ab£-°amzah al-Tham¡liy has reported Imam Mu¦ammad al-B¡qir (a.s) as saying, "Whey you ready yourself for joining the congregational Friday Prayers and the `«d Prayers, you may say the following supplication:
