FIQH 2.149: THE TIME OF ‘ID PRAYERS
The time for salatul ‘id begins from the time the sun is three meters above the horizon until the sun reaches its meridian.
Ahmad ibn Hassan al-Bana’ records that Jundub said: “The Prophet prayed the ‘idul fitr prayer while the sun was [approximately] six meters above the horizon and the ‘id of the sacrifice while the sun was three meters above the horizon.”
Ash-Shaukani says: “That is the best of what has been related concerning the specific time of salatul ‘idain and the hadith shows that it is preferred to hasten in praying salat al adha and to delay the salatul fitr.”
Ibn Qudamah says: “It is a sunnah to pray salatul adha early in order to allow more time for the people to perform the sacrifice, and the salatul fitr is to be delayed in order to give people time to pay zakat al-Fitr. I know of no difference of opinion on this point.”
Fiqh 2.149 a: The adhan and iqamah for salatul ‘idain
Ibn al-Qayyim writes: “When the Messenger of Allah went to the musalla (place of prayer), he would perform the salah without any adhan or iqamah and without saying ‘as-salatu jami’ah’ (prayer in congregation). The sunnah is not to do any of that.”
Ibn ‘Abbas and Jabir both report that there was no azhan on the day of the breaking of the fast or on the day of sacrifice. This is related by al-Bukhari and Muslim. Muslim records that ‘Ata said: “Jabir informed me that there is no azhan for the ‘id of breaking the fast, neither when the imam arrives nor afterward. And there is no iqamah or call of any kind.”
Sa’d ibn abi-Waqqas reports: “The Prophet prayed salatul ‘eid without any azhan or iqamah. He would deliver two khutbahs standing and would separate them by sitting between them.’ This is related by al-Bazzar.
