HOW SHOULD A MUSLIM OBSERVE EID-UL-FITR
Eid-ul-Fitr refers to the festival after completion of fasting in the Month of Ramadaan. This auspicious occasion is celebrated on the 1st of Shawwaal ul Mukarram which is the 10th month of the Islaamic calendar. The festival of Eid-ul-Fitr is a manner of showing appreciation and gratitude to Almighty Allaah for all that He has bestowed upon us.
On the morning of Eid-ul-Fitr, Muslims throughout the world perform the traditional Eid Salaah, which is Waajib upon all Muslims. It is not permissible to miss the Eid prayer without any valid reason. With the exception of performing the Eid Prayer, there are also various actions which are desirable on the day of Eid
. 
These are:
to trim the hair and nails
to perform the Ghusl (Ceremonial Bath),
to use the Miswaak (special toothbrush),
to wear (if affordable) or good clean clothing, and to use Ittar (Perfume),
to perform the Fajr Salaah (morning prayer) in the nearest Mosque of your area,
to leave early to perform the Eid Salaah,
to give the Sadaqa-e-Fitr (Eid-ul-Fitr Charity) before the Eid Salaah,
to go by foot (if possible) for the Eid Salaah, and return home in another route,
to eat a few dates (preferably an odd number) or something sweet before going for Eid Salaah,and
to show happiness and gratification, to give charity in abundance, to walk modestly towards the Eid gathering, and to wish and congratulate one another after the Eid Prayer.
As much as Eid is a time of rejoicing, it is also a time of giving and sharing with those less fortunate than yourself. The Holy Prophet Muhammad [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam] would always be the first to congratulate the poor and the orphans. We should also try to be as kind as possible on this day to our fellow Muslims. The Holy Prophet [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam] has stated, "Smiling in the face of your brother is Charity."
Eid an ocassion of happiness and care 2016
The concept of Eid is attached with happiness and happiness comes from success. Success is not what we declare as success. Success is in fact that which Allaah Ta’aalaa states is success.
The count of days of the month of Ramadaan, are completing. Laielatul Jaa’izah (first new moon of the night of Shawwaal) is coming.
Did we make Allaah Taa’aalaa Jalla Shaanuhu and the holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaiehi Wa Sallam) happy?
Are our respected parents happy with us?
Have we fulfilled our duties related to religion (Ieemaani), family (khaandaani), humanity (Insaani) and morality (Akhlaaqi)?
In this holy month of Ramadaan, the blessed guest of Allaah Kareem, did we work hard to make ourselves worth of salvation (maghfirat)?
What is happiness?
How do we get happiness?
We are lost in the crowd, we have lost our language (zabaan), tradition (tahzeeb), culture (saqaafat), values(aqdaar) and customs (riwaayaat), infact we have lost our identity. We have turned our faces away from our culture.
Do we really deserve to celebrate any kind of happiness?
But still the doors of repentance (taubah) has not closed on us, we should not lose hope in Allaah Kareem’s countless blessings.
Yes! We have to make this promise that the training (tarbiyyat), piety (taqwaa), cleanliness (tazkiyyah) and goodness (naykee) we have gained in the month of Ramadaan, we have to continue this throughout the year and also we will spend our lives in pleasing Allaah Kareem and the beloved holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaiehi Wa Sallam).
We sincerely hope that our Rabb e Kareem will not look at our sins but with HIS blessings HE will not disappoint us, and surely will reward us.
Without a doubt, it is Eid for him whom Allaah Kareem rewards.
Allaah Kareem made us the follower of Rasool e Kareem (Sallal Laahu Alaiehi Wa Sallam), and honored us with the title of ‘the best nation’ (Khaier ul Umam). In the name of the holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaiehi Wa Sallam) may HE bestow on us the real happiness of Eid.
Before greeting you on this occasion of Eid ul Fitr, I Kaukab Noorani Okarvi (Ghufira Lahu) most humble, nothing more than a speck of dust would like to ask for forgiveness for all my mistakes and shortcomings in my attitude.
Allaah Kareem bless you with real Eid and real happiness.
EID MUBAARAK!
