🌙 Eid in Madinah The Two Eids Began Right Here Most people celebrate the two Eids every year without ever knowing where they began — and the answer lies in the city of the Prophet ﷺ. When the Prophet ﷺ first migrated to Madinah, its people already kept two festival days inherited from before Islam. He ﷺ informed them that Allah had replaced those two days with two better ones — Eid al-Adha and Eid al-Fitr. So every Eid we celebrate today, anywhere in the world, was first given right here in Madinah. 📖 Sunan Abi Dawud 1134 — graded Sahih (Shaykh al-Albani raḥimahullāh) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🌙 SUNNAHS OF EID DAY ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✨ Perform ghusl before heading out — the practice of Ibn ʿUmar (raḍiyallāhu ʿanhumā). ✨ Wear your best, cleanest clothes and apply perfume (for men). ✨ Walk to the prayer rather than ride, whenever possible. ✨ Take a different route home from the one you took to the prayer — a Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ. 📖 Sahih al-Bukhari 986 ✨ Recite the Takbeer aloud on the way to the prayer. ✨ Do not eat before the Eid al-Adha prayer — the opposite of Eid al-Fitr, where the day begins with dates. Eat after the prayer, ideally from your sacrifice. 📖 Jami' at-Tirmidhi 542 · Sahih al-Bukhari 953 ✨ Eid prayer is two rak'ahs with extra takbeers, no adhan and no iqamah, and the khutbah comes after the prayer. 📖 Sahih al-Bukhari 960 · Sahih Muslim 886 ✨ Qurbani is offered after the prayer, never before — reviving the Sunnah of Ibrahim ﷺ. 📖 Sahih al-Bukhari 5560 · Bukhari 5565 / Muslim 1966 ✨ The meat is traditionally shared in three — your family, relatives and neighbours, and those in need. ✨ Greet one another with Taqabbal Allāhu minnā wa minkum — "May Allah accept from us and from you." #EidInMadinah #EidAlAdha #Madinah #MasjidNabawi #Umrah #CityOfTheProphet #EidMubarak #IslamicHistory #UmrahGuide #PilgrimLife #MadinahDiaries #SunnahOfEid #EidPrayer #ProphetMuhammad ﷺ #madinah #makkah #eid2026 #hajj2026 #albaik #islamic #foryou
