Understanding the Significance of Eid Prayer

Eid al-Fitr has a particular salat (Islamic prayer) or Eid prayer that consists of two rakats (units) generally performed in an open field or large hall. Eid Prayer may only be performed in congregation and features seven additional Takbirs (raising of the hands to the ears while saying “Allāhu ʾAkbar”, meaning “God is the greatest), three at the start of the first Rakat, and three just before rukūʿ in the second rakat.

Further, in Shia Islam, the Eid Prayer salat has six Takbirs in the first Rakat at the end of qira’a, before rukūʿ, and five in the second. Depending on the juristic opinion of the locality, this salat is either farḍ (obligatory), mustaḥabb (strongly recommended), or mandub,( preferable). After the salat, Muslims celebrate Eid al-Fitr in various ways, with food (“Eid cuisine”) being a central theme, which also gives the holiday the nickname “Sweet Eid” or “Sugar Feast.”
