SALAT Al - EID

The `«d Prayer (¯al¡t al-`«d) consists of two Rak`ahs. In the first Rak`ah, one may recite S£rah of al-F¡ti¦ah and S£rah of al-A`l¡ (No. 87). After the recitation of these S£rahs, one may say the takb¢r statement (i.e. all¡hu-akbar) five times and raise the hands for the Qun£t after each takb¢r, saying:

Çááøåõãø Ãóåúáó ÇáúßöÈúÑöíóÇÁö æóÇáúÚóÙóãóÉö¡

all¡humma ahla alkibriy¡‘i wal-`a¨amati

O Allah: You are the Lord of glory and greatness

æóÃóåúáó ÇáúÌõæÏö æóÇáúÌóÈóÑõæÊö¡

wa ahla alj£di wal-jabar£ti

And the Lord of magnanimity and omnipotence

æóÃóåúáó ÇáúÚóÝúæö æóÇáÑøÍúãóÉö¡

wa ahla al-`afwi wal-rra¦mati

And the Lord of pardon and mercy,

æóÃóåúáó ÇáÊøÞúæóì æóÇáúãóÛúÝöÑóÉö¡

wa ahla alttaqw¡ wal-maghfirati

And the worthiest of being feared and the Lord of forgiveness;

ÃóÓúÃóáõßó ÈöÍóÞø åÐóÇ Çáúíóæúãö ÇáøÐöí ÌóÚóáúÊóåõ áöáúãõÓúáöãöíäó ÚöíÏÇð¡

as’aluka bi¦aqqi h¡dh¡ aliyawmi alladhy ja`altahu lilmuslim¢na `¢dan

I beseech You in the name of this day, which You have decided to be feast for the Muslims,

æóáöãõÍóãøÏò Õóáøóì Çááåõ Úóáóíúåö æóÂáöå ÐõÎúÑÇð æóãóÒöíÏÇð

wa limu¦ammadin ¥all¡ all¡hu `alayhi wa ¡lihi dhukhran wa maz¢dan

And to be safety and increasing honor for Mu¦ammad—peace of Allah be upon him and his Household—

Ãóäú ÊõÕóáøíó Úóáóì ãõÍóãøÏò æóÂáö ãõÍóãøÏò

an tu¥alliya `al¡ mu¦ammadin wa ¡li mu¦ammadin

(I beseech You) that You may send blessings upon Mu¦ammad and the Household of Mu¦ammad,

æóÃóäú ÊõÏúÎöáóäöí Ýöí ßõáø ÎóíúÑò ÃóÏúÎóáúÊó Ýöíåö ãõÍóãøÏÇð æóÂáó ãõÍóãøÏò¡

wa an tudkhilany f¢ kulli khayrin adkhalta f¢hi mu¦ammadan wa ¡la mu¦ammadin

And You may include me with every item of goodness with which You have included Mu¦ammad and the Household of Mu¦ammad,

æóÃóäú ÊõÎúÑöÌóäöí ãöäú ßõáøö ÓõæÁò ÃóÎúÑóÌúÊó ãöäúåõ ãõÍóãøÏÇð æóÂáó ãõÍóãøÏò

wa an tukhrijany min kulli s£‘in akhrajta minhu mu¦ammadan wa ¡la mu¦ammadin

And that You save me from any item of evil from which You have saved Mu¦ammad and the Household of Mu¦ammad,

ÕóáóæóÇÊõßó Úóáóíúåö æóÚóáóíúåöãú.

¥alaw¡tuka `alayhi wa `alayhim

May Your blessings be upon him and upon them.

Çááøåõãø Åöäøí ÃóÓúÃóáõßó ÎóíúÑó ãóÇ ÓóÃóáóßó ÚöÈóÇÏõßó ÇáÕøóÇáöÍõæäó¡

all¡humma inn¢ as’aluka khayra m¡ sa’alaka `ib¡duka al¥¥¡li¦£na

O Allah: I pray You for the best of all that for which Your righteous servants have prayed You,

æóÃóÚõæÐõ Èößó ãöãøóÇ ÇÓúÊóÚóÇÐó ãöäúåõ ÚöÈóÇÏõßó ÇáÕøóÇáöÍõæäó.

wa a`£dhu bika mimm¡ ista`¡dha minhu `ib¡duka al¥¥¡li¦£na

And I seek Your protection against all that against which Your righteous servants have asked Your protection.

You may then say the takb¢r for the sixth time, and do the genuflection (ruk£`), and prostrate yourself (suj£d). When you stand up for the second Rak`ah, recite S£rah of al-F¡ti¦ah and S£rah of al-Shams (No. 91) and then say the takb¢r four times only raising the hands for the Qun£t after each takb¢r. After that, say the fifth takb¢r and continue the prayer. After accomplishment of the prayer, say the famous Tasb¢¦ al-Zahr¡' (a.s).

Narrations have mentioned many supplications to be said after the `«d Prayer; rather the best of them may be the forty-fifth supplication of al-¯a¦¢fah al-K¡milah al-Sajj¡diyyah.

It is recommended to offer the `«d Prayer outdoors, directly on the ground without putting a carpet or any other thing under the feet, to return from a way other than the one taken in the coming, to pray Almighty Allah for accepting the acts of one’s brethren-in-faith.
