- The intention to perform the Eid prayer in a loud voice according to the audience, as he says: “I intended the Eid prayer for God Almighty.” It is not Sunnah to perform the Eid prayer according to the Malikis, but rather the heart.
- The worshiper also performs the opening takbeer, and then 3 takbeers according to the Hanafi scholars in the first and second rak’ahs.
- While the Malikis see that the takbeers are 7 in the first rak’ah and 5 takbeers in the second.
- For the Malikis and Hanbalis, they saw that the takbeers are 6 in the first rak’ah and 5 takbeers in the second.
- The takbeers were repeated after the recitation, both in the first and the second, according to the majority of scholars.
- Whereas according to the Hanafis, the takbeers are only after the recitation in the first rak’ah.
- As for the takbeers, Abdullah bin Masoud, may God be pleased with them, said: “He says takbeer nine times to begin the prayer, then he says takbeer three times, then he recites a surah, then he says takbeer, then he bows, then he gets up and recites a surah, then he says takbeer four times, bowing with one of them.”
- It was also narrated on the authority of Abdullah bin Omar, may God be pleased with them, that he said: “I witnessed Al-Adha and Al-Fitr with Abu Hurairah, so he said seven takbeers in the first rak’ah before reading, and in the afterlife five takbeers before reading.”
