What is the method of performing Eid Salaah?
Method of Eid Salaah (Hanafi)
Intention of performing two Rakaats of Waajib Salaah for Eid-ul-Fitr/ Eid-ul-Adha behind the Imaam with six extra Takbeer should be made. When the Imaam says Allahu Akbar, raise your hands and fold them.
Thanaa will be recited, the Imaam will then say Allahu Akbar and the Muqtadi (follower) will raise his hands to the ears and put them back down at the sides.
The Imaam will make the next Takbeer and the Muqtadi will raise his hands to the ears and put them back down at the sides.
The Imaam will make the next Takbeer and the Muqtadi will raise his hands and then fold it as normal. Ta’awuz and Tasmiyah as well as Qiraat will be made by the Imaam. Takbeer will be made for Ruku, Qaumah, Sajdah, Jalsa, Sajdah and the Qiyaam again for the second Rakaat (as is the normal procedure for a Rakaat of Salaah).
After Qiraat in the second Rakaat, the Imaam will say Allahu Akbar and the Muqtadi will raise his hands to the ears and put them back down at the sides.
The Imaam will say Allahu Akbar again and the Muqtadi will raise the hands and put them back down at the sides.
The Imaam will say Allahu Akbar for the third time in this Rakaat and the Muqtadi will raise his hands and put them back down at the sides.
When the Imaam says Allahu Akbar again, the Muqtadi will go into Ruku without raising his hands. The Rakaat will then continue and terminate as normal, thus completing two Rakaats of Eid Salaah.
Allah and His Rasool know best.
