6. Two ʿĪd (Eid) Ṣalāhs
٦۔ كِتَابُ صَلَاةِ الْعِيدَيْنِ
I participated in the Fitr prayer with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Abu Bakr, 'Umar and 'Uthman, and all of them observed this prayer before the Khutba, and then he (the Holy Prophet) delivered the sermon. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ descended (from the pulpit) and I (perceive) as if I am seeing him as he is commanding people with his hand to sit down. He then made his way through their (assembly) till he came to the women. Bilal was with him. He then recited (this verse): O Prophet, when believing women come to thee giving thee a pledge that they will not associate aught with Allah" (lx. 12) till he finished (his address to) them and then said: Do you conform to it (what has been described in the verse)? Only one woman among them replied: Yes, Apostle of Allah, but none else replied. He (the narrator) said: It could not be ascertained who actually she was. He (the Holy Prophet) exhorted them to give alms. Bilal stretched his cloth and then said: Come forward with alms. Let my father and mother be taken as ransom for you. And they began to throw rings and ringlets in the cloth of Bilal. (Using translation from Muslim 884a)
صَلَاةَ الْفِطْرِ مَعَ نَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ ؓ فَكُلُّهُمْ يُصَلِّيهَا قَبْلَ الْخُطْبَةِ ثُمَّ يَخْطُبُ بَعْدَ قَالَ فَنَزَلَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ حِينَ يُجَلِّسُ الرِّجَالَ بِيَدِهِ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ يَشُقُّهُمْ حَتَّى أَتَى النِّسَاءَ وَمَعَهُ بِلَالٌ فَقَالَ {يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ إِذَا جَاءَكَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتُ يُبَايِعْنَكَ} [الممتحنة 12] الْآيَةَ ثُمَّ قَالَ حِينَ فَرَغَ مِنْهَا أَنْتُنَّ عَلَى ذَلِكَ فَقَالَتِ امْرَأَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ لَمْ يُجِبْهُ غَيْرُهَا مِنْهُنَّ نَعَمْ يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ لَا نَدْرِي حِينَئِذٍ مَنْ هِيَ قَالَ تَصَدَّقْنَ فَبَسَطَ بِلَالٌ ثَوْبَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ هَلُمَّ فِدًا لَكُنَّ أَبِي وَأُمِّي فَجَعَلْنَ يُلْقِينَ الْفَتَخَ وَالْخَوَاتِيمَ فِي ثَوْبِ بِلَالٍ
[Machine] I heard him say that the Prophet ﷺ stood on the day of Eid and prayed. He started praying before the sermon and then delivered the sermon to the people. When the Prophet ﷺ finished, he descended and went to the women. He reminded them while leaning on Bilal's hand, and Bilal spread his garment and the women would throw their charity into it, totaling 6207. Abu Salih ibn Abi Tahir informed us that my grandfather Yahya ibn Mansur narrated to us, that Ahmad ibn Salamah narrated to us, that Muhammad ibn Yahya narrated to us, that Abdul Razzaq mentioned it with a similar chain of narration. I asked Ata'ah, "Is the zakat of Eid day obligatory?" He said, "No, but it is a charity that they give at that time, the woman throws it and they throw it." I asked Ata'ah, "Do you think it is the right of the Imam now to come to the women when he is free and remind them?" He said, "By my life! Indeed, that is their right, and what is there for them not to do it?"
سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَامَ يَوْمَ الْفِطْرِ فَصَلَّى فَبَدَأَ بِالصَّلَاةِ قَبْلَ الْخُطْبَةِ ثُمَّ خَطَبَ النَّاسَ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ نَزَلَ فَأَتَى النِّسَاءَ فَذَكَّرَهُنَّ وَهُوَ يَتَوَكَّأُ عَلَى يَدِ بِلَالٍ وَبِلَالٌ بَاسِطٌ ثَوْبَهُ يُلْقِينَ فِيهِ النِّسَاءُ الصَّدَقَةَ 6207 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو صَالِحِ بْنُ أَبِي طَاهِرٍ أنبأ جَدِّي يَحْيَى بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ فَذَكَرَهُ بِمِثْلِ إِسْنَادِهِ وَزَادَ قُلْتُ لِعَطَاءٍ زَكَاةُ يَوْمِ الْفِطْرِ؟ قَالَ لَا وَلَكِنَّهُ صَدَقَةٌ يَتَصَدَّقْنَ بِهَا حِينَئِذٍ تُلْقِي الْمَرْأَةُ فَتَخَهَا وَيُلْقِينَ وَيُلْقِينَ قُلْتُ لِعَطَاءٍ أَتَرَى حَقًّا عَلَى الْإِمَامِ الْآنَ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ النِّسَاءَ حِينَ يَفْرُغَ فَيُذَكِّرُهُنَّ قَالَ أَيْ لَعَمْرِي إِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَحَقٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يَفْعَلُونَ ذَلِكَ؟
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , delivered a sermon while riding his mount on the Day of Sacrifice. Sometimes, he would hold its reins, and sometimes, he would hold its halter. He asked, "What day is this?" This narration was mentioned in Sahih Al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, reported by Ibn 'Awn and others from Ibn Sirin.
خَطَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ يَوْمَ النَّحْرِ وَأَمْسَكْتُ إِمَّا قَالَ بِخِطَامِهَا وَإِمَّا قَالَ بِزِمَامِهَا قَالَ أِيُّ يَوْمٍ هَذَا ؟ وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ أَخْرَجَاهُ فِي الصَّحِيحَيْنِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ عَوْنٍ وَغَيْرِهِ عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave a sermon on the day of Eid while riding on a brown camel, which was being held by an Abyssinian man. It has been narrated that Abu Jamilah saw Uthman ibn Affan, Ali, and Al-Mughirah ibn Shu'bah, giving sermons on the day of Eid while riding their own mounts. Also, it has been narrated from Abu Mas'ud Al-Ansari that he gave a sermon on the day of Eid while riding his own mount.
رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَخْطُبُ يَوْمَ عِيدٍ عَلَى نَاقَةٍ خَرْمَاءَ وَحَبَشِيٌّ مُمْسِكٌ بِخِطَامِهَا وَرُوِّينَا عَنْ أَبِي جَمِيلَةَ أَنَّهُ رَأَى عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ وَعَلِيًّا وَالْمُغِيرَةَ بْنَ شُعْبَةَ ؓ خَطَبَ يَوْمَ الْعِيدِ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ وَعَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ أَنَّهُ خَطَبَ يَوْمَ الْعِيدِ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ
[Machine] I saw Al-Mughirah bin Shu'bah on the day of Eid Al-Adha or Eid Al-Fitr praying two units of prayer with the people, then he delivered a sermon while leaning on a camel. He neither performed the call to prayer (adhan) nor stood up (iqama).
رَأَيْتُ الْمُغِيرَةَ بْنَ شُعْبَةَ ؓ يَوْمَ أَضْحَى أَوْ فِطْرٍ صَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ خَطَبَ عَلَى بَعِيرٍ وَلَمْ يُؤَذِّنْ وَلَمْ يُقِمْ
