Certainly, a son is a precious wealth. But, Prophet Ibrahim obeyed Allah’s command to sacrifice Ishmael, his beloved son. Allah impressed with Prophet Ibrahim’s sincerity and then gave a ram as a replacement for Ishmael. In that case, Muslims commemorate Eid Al Adha to honor Prophet Ibrahim’s sincerity. This is one of the main annual festivals in Islam. Similar to Eid al-Fitr, Muslims will perform a prayer of 2 Rakah followed by a khutbah. What time are the prayers (Salah)? It is important to know the guideline of the time in order to follow the right regulation. Regularly, Salah is performed on 10th of Dhul-Hijjah. This Salah starts the traditions in this special celebration. Salah al-Eid quiet differs from the 5 daily Salah. There is no adhan or iqama for the Salah al-Eid. In the first Raka'ah, there are 7 takbirs, and in the second Raka'ah, there are 5 takbirs. After the prayer, Imam commonly conveys the khutbah.
Is there any special consideration if the prayers can’t be done on 10th of Dhul-Hijjah? We do not know the following occurrences. So, Islam makes dispensation for certain occurrence. If there is a natural disaster on 10th of Dhul-Hijjah, Salah Eid Al Adha can be delayed. What time is the Salah can be performed? The Salah can be performed on 11th of Dhul-Hijjah or 12th of Dhul-Hijjah. Islam gives dispensation in order to make something easier based on the condition. After performing Salah, there will be Eid sacrifice in every celebration of Eid Al Adha. The start of Eid sacrifice depends on what time the prayers are. It can be counted as Eid sacrifice if it is executed after the Salah al-eid until the sunset on 13th of Dhul-Hijjah. After the sunset on 13th of Dhul-Hijjah, the animal that is slaughtered does not belong to Eid sacrifice. More details about Eid Al Adha visit our new web site
