Eid-ul-Fitr Sunnats

1. To wake up early
2. To engage in reciting the Takbeer SILENTLY from Subah Saadiq until just before the Eid Salaah
3. To clip the moustache
4. To have a Ghusl (bath)
5. To ensure unwanted hair is removed and the moustache is clipped
6. To use the Miswaak
7. To wear clean ISLAMIC clothes – it is NOT necessary for clothes to be NEW. Yes, it is necessary for clothes to be ISLAMIC
8. To use Itr
9. To eat an odd number of dates (Khajoor) before the performance of Eid Salaah
10. To pay one’s Sadaqatul-Fitr before the Eid Salaah, if it is not yet paid. The same rules as we mentioned in a previous poster applies regarding Sadaqatul-Fitr!

Important Note:

The Sunnats pertaining to the Eidgah have been omitted due to the lockdown regulations which will not permit the Eidgah for this Eid. Where ‘Eid Salaah’ is mentioned, it is in the case of it being performed at home.

May Allah Ta’ala reopen the Masaajid, Madaaris and all other works of Deen that are done in a manner that is pleasing to Him, Aameen.
