No one in this world should have right to disgrace the peaceful people of other religions. If a group of terrorists have committed a disaster it does not mean that all Muslims are the same. This type of decisions can not create peace rather will blow more anger into the people and more fights will take place in the World which is of no use. Better is to deal the issues sensibly in future as well.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><font face="Georgia"><font color="DarkSlateBlue"><font size="2"><div align="center"><br />
</div>What are the Sunnahs and etiquettes that we should act in accordance with on the day of Eid?.<br />
<br />
 The Sunnahs that the Muslim should observe on      the day of Eid are as follows: <br />
<br />
<br />
      <font face="Palatino Linotype"><font size="4"><font color="black">1 – Doing ghusl before going out to the      prayer. </font></font></font><br />
<br />
      It  was narrated in a saheeh hadeeth in      al-Muwatta’ and elsewhere that ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Umar used to do  ghusl on the day of al-Fitr before going out to the prayer-place in the      morning. Al-Muwatta’ 428. <br />
<br />
<br />
      <div align="left">Al- Nawawi (may Allaah have mercy on him) said that the Muslims were unanimously agreed that it      is mustahabb to do ghusl for Eid prayer. <br />
<br />
</div>      The reason why it is mustahabb is the same      reason as that for doing ghusl before Jumu’ah and other public gatherings. Rather on Eid the reason is even stronger. <br />
<br />
<br />
      <font face="Palatino Linotype"><font size="4"><font color="black">2 – Eating before going out to pray on Eid      al-Fitr and after the prayer on Eid al-Adha:</font></font></font> <br />
<br />
      Part  of the etiquette is not to go out to      pray on Eid al-Fitr until one has eaten some dates, because of the  hadeeth narrated by al-Bukhaari from Anas ibn Maalik, who said that the      Messenger of Allaah  (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)  used not to go out on the morning of Eid al-Fitr until he had eaten some       dates… of which he would eat an odd number. Al-Bukhaari, 953. <br />
<br />
      It is mustahabb to eat before going out to      emphasize the fact that it is forbidden to fast on that day and to demonstrate that the fast has ended. <br />
      Ibn  Hajar (may Allaah have mercy on him)      suggested that the reason for that was so as to ward off the  possibility of adding to the fast, and to hasten to obey the command of  Allaah.      Al-Fath, 2/446 <br />
<br />
      Whoever does not have any dates may break his      fast with anything that is permissible. <br />
      But  on Eid al-Adha it is mustahabb not to eat      anything until one comes back from the prayer, so he should eat from  the udhiyah if he has offered a sacrifice. If he is not going to offer a       sacrifice there is nothing wrong with eating before the prayer. <br />
<br />
<br />
      <font face="Palatino Linotype"><font size="4"><font color="black">3 – Takbeer on the day of Eid </font></font></font><font face="Palatino Linotype"><font size="4"><font color="black"><br />
</font></font></font><br />
      This is one of the greatest Sunnahs on the      day of Eid because Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): <br />
<br />
      “(He  wants that you) must complete the      same number (of days), and that you must magnify Allaah [i.e. to say  Takbeer (Allaahu Akbar: Allaah is the Most Great)] for having guided  you so      that you may be grateful to Him”<br />
      [al-Baqarah 2:185] <br />
<br />
<br />
      <div align="left">It was narrated that al-Waleed  ibn Muslim said: I asked al-Awzaa’i and Maalik ibn Anas about      saying Takbeer out loud on the two Eids. They said, Yes, ‘Abd-Allaah  ibn ‘Umar used to say it out loud on the day of al-Fitr until the imam  came      out (to lead the prayers). <br />
<br />
</div>      It  was narrated in a saheeh report that ‘Abd      al-Rahmaan al-Sulami said, “They emphasized it more on the day of  al-Fitr than the day of al-Adha.”. Wakee’ said, this refers to the  takbeer. See     Irwa’ al-Ghaleel, 3/122/ <br />
<br />
Al-Daaraqutni and others  narrated that on the morning of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, Ibn ‘Umar      would strive hard in reciting takbeer until he came to the prayer  place, then he would recite takbeer until the imam came out. <br />
<div align="left"> <br />
</div>      Ibn  Abi Shaybah narrated with a saheeh isnaad      that al-Zuhri said: The people used to recite Takbeer on Eid when  they came out of their houses until they came to the prayer place, and  until the      imam came out. When the imam came out they fell silent, and when he  said takbeer they said takbeer. See Irwa’ al-Ghaleel, 1/121 <br />
<br />
Saying  takbeer when coming out of one's house      to the prayer place and until the imam came out was something that  was well known among the salaf (early generations). This has been  narrated by a      number of scholars such as Ibn Abi Shaybah, ‘Abd a l-Razzaaq and  al-Firyaabi in Ahkaam al-Eidayn from a group of the salaf. For example,      Naafi’ ibn Jubayr used to recite takbeer and was astonished that the  people did not do so, and he said, “Why do you not recite takbeer?” <br />
<br />
Ibn  Shihaab al-Zuhri (may Allaah have mercy      on him) used to say, “The people used to recite takbeer from the  time they came out of their houses until the imam came in.” <br />
      The time for takbeer on Eid al-Fitr starts      from the night before Eid until the imam enters to lead the Eid prayer. <br />
<br />
      In the case of Eid al-Adha, the takbeer      begins on the first day of Dhu’l-Hijjah and lasts until sunset on the last of the days of tashreeq. <br />
<br />
      <b>Description of the takbeer: </b><br />
      It  was narrated in the Musannaf of Ibn Abi      Shaybah with a saheeh isnaad from Ibn Mas’ood (may Allaah be pleased  with him) that he used to recite takbeer during the days of tashreeq: <br />
<br />
Allaahu akbar, Allaahu akbar, laa ilaaha      ill-Allaah, wa Allaahu akbar, Allaah akbar, wa Lillaah il-hamd (Allaah is Most Great, Allaah is most Great, there is no      god but Allaah, Allaah is Most great, Allaah is most great, and to Allaah be praise). <br />
<br />
It was also narrated elsewhere by Ibn Abi      Shaybah with the same isnaad, but with the phrase “Allaahu akbar” repeated three times. <br />
<br />
      Al-Mahaamili  narrated with a saheeh isnaad      also from Ibn Mas’ood: “Allaahu akbaru kabeera, Allaahu akbaru  kabeera, Allaahu akbar wa ajallu, Allaahu akbar wa Lillaah il-hamd  (Allaah      is Most Great indeed, Allaah is Most Great indeed, Allaah is most  Great and Glorified, Allaah is Most Great and to Allaah be praise).” See       al-Irwa’, 3/126. <br />
<br />
<br />
      <font face="Palatino Linotype"><font size="4"><font color="black">4 – Offering congratulations <br />
</font></font></font><br />
The  etiquette of Eid also includes the      congratulations and good wishes exchanged by people, no matter what  the wording, such as saying to one another Taqabbala Allaah minna wa  minkum      (May Allaah accept (good deeds) from us and from you” or “Eid  mubaarak” and other permissible expressions of congratulations. <br />
<br />
It  was narrated that Jubayr ibn Nufayr said:      When the companions of the Prophet  (peace and blessings of Allaah  be upon him) met one another on the day of Eid, they would say to one      another, “May Allaah accept (good deeds) from us and from you.” Ibn  Hajar said, its isnaad is hasan. Al-Fath, 2/446. <br />
<br />
      Offering  congratulations was something that      was well known among the Sahaabah, and scholars such as Imam Ahmad  and others allowed it. There is evidence which suggests that it is  prescribed      to offer congratulations and good wishes on special occasions, and  that the Sahaabah congratulated one another when good things happened,  such as      when Allaah accepted the repentance of a man, they went and  congratulated him for that, and so on. <br />
      Undoubtedly these congratulations are among      the noble characteristics among the Muslims. <br />
      The  least that may be said concerning the      subject of congratulations is that you should return the greetings  of those who congratulate you on Eid, and keep quiet if others keep  quiet, as      Imam Ahmad (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: If anyone  congratulates you, then respond, otherwise do not initiate it. <br />
<br />
<br />
      <font face="Palatino Linotype"><font size="4"><font color="black">5 – Adorning oneself on the occasion of Eid. </font></font></font><font color="black"><br />
</font><br />
It  was narrated that ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Umar      (may Allaah be pleased with him) said that ‘Umar took a brocade  cloak that was for sale in the market and brought it to the Messenger of  Allaah       (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), and said, “O Messenger  of Allaah, buy this and adorn yourself with it for Eid and for  receiving      the delegations.” The Messenger of Allaah  (peace and blessings of  Allaah be upon him) said to him, “Rather this is the dress of one who  has      no share (of piety or of reward in the Hereafter)…” Narrated by  al-Bukhaari, 948. <br />
<br />
      The  Prophet  (peace and blessings of      Allaah be upon him) agreed with ‘Umar on the idea of adorning  oneself for Eid, but he denounced him for choosing this cloak because it  was made of      silk. <br />
<br />
It  was narrated that Jaabir (may Allaah be      pleased with him) said: The Prophet  (peace and blessings of Allaah  be upon him) had a cloak which he would wear on the two Eids and on      Fridays. Saheeh Ibn Khuzaymah, 1756, <br />
<br />
Al-Bayhaqi narrated with a saheeh isnaad that Ibn ‘Umar used to wear his best clothes on Eid. <br />
<div align="left"> <br />
</div>      So a man should wear the best clothes that he      has when going out for Eid. <br />
      With  regard to women, they should avoid      adorning themselves when they go out for Eid, because they are  forbidden to show off their adornments to non-mahram men. It is also  haraam for a      woman who wants to go out to put on perfume or to expose men to  temptation, because they are only going out for the purpose of worship. <br />
<br />
<br />
      <font face="Palatino Linotype"><font size="4"><font color="black">6 – Going to the prayer by one route and      returning by another.</font></font></font><br />
 <br />
      It  was narrated that Jaabir ibn ‘Abd-Allaah      (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: On the day of Eid, the  Prophet  (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to vary his  route.      Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 986. <br />
<br />
      It  was said that the reason for that was so      that the two routes would testify for him on the Day of  Resurrection, for the earth will speak on the Day of Resurrection and  say what was done on      it, both good and bad. <br />
<br />
      And  it was said that it was in order to      manifest the symbols of Islam on both routes, or to manifest the  remembrance of Allaah (dhikr), or to annoy the hypocrites and Jews, and  to scare      them with the large number of people who were with him. And it was  said that it was in order to attend to the people’s needs, to answer  their      questions, teach them, set an example and give charity to the needy,  or to visit his relatives and uphold the ties of kinship.<br />
<br />
      And Allaah knows best.<br />
