وَ قَالَ ع‌ نَوْمُ الْغَدَاةِ شُؤْمٌ يَحْرِمُ الرِّزْقَ وَ يُصَفِّرُ اللَّوْنَ وَ كَانَ الْمَنُّ وَ السَّلْوَى يَنْزِلُ عَلَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مَا بَيْنَ طُلُوعِ الْفَجْرِ إِلَى طُلُوعِ الشَّمْسِ فَمَنْ نَامَ تِلْكَ السَّاعَةَ لَمْ يَنْزِلْ نَصِيبُهُ فَكَانَ إِذَا انْتَبَهَ فَلَا يَرَى نَصِيبَهُ احْتَاجَ إِلَى السُّؤَالِ وَ الطَّلَبِ‌[5].

Hadith.1449 - Imam (as) said: "Sleeping in the morning (after dawn) is an omen of misfortune; it deprives one of sustenance and pales the complexion. The manna and quails used to descend upon the Children of Israel between the time of dawn until sunrise, so whoever slept during that hour would not receive their share.

فِي قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ- فَالْمُقَسِّماتِ أَمْراً قَالَ الْمَلَائِكَةُ تُقَسِّمُ أَرْزَاقَ بَنِي آدَمَ مَا بَيْنَ طُلُوعِ الْفَجْرِ إِلَى طُلُوعِ الشَّمْسِ فَمَنْ يَنَامُ فِيمَا بَيْنَهُمَا يَنَامُ عَنْ رِزْقِهِ

كَانَ وَ هُوَ بِخُرَاسَانَ إِذَا صَلَّى الْفَجْرَ جَلَسَ فِي مُصَلَّاهُ إِلَى أَنْ تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ‌[1] ثُمَّ يُؤْتَى بِخَرِيطَةٍ[2] فِيهَا مَسَاوِيكُ فَيَسْتَاكُ بِهَا وَاحِداً بَعْدَ وَاحِدٍ ثُمَّ يُؤْتَى بِكُنْدُرٍ فَيَمْضَغُهُ ثُمَّ يَدَعُ ذَلِكَ فَيُؤْتَى بِالْمُصْحَفِ فَيَقْرَأُ فِيهِ‌[3].

Hadith.1451 - Muammar ibn Khallad narrated from Imam al-Ridha (as) that when he was in Khurasan, after performing the Fajr prayer, he would sit in his prayer place until the sun rose. Then, a pouch containing miswaks (tooth-cleaning sticks) would be brought to him, and he would use them one by one. Afterward, he would

صَلَاةُ الْعِيدَيْنِ فَرِيضَةٌ وَ صَلَاةُ الْكُسُوفِ فَرِيضَةٌ.

Hadith.1453 - Jamil ibn Darraj narrated from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) that He said: "The prayers of the two Eids (Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha) are obligatory, and the prayer of the eclipse (Salat al-Kusoof) is also obligatory."

«صَلاَةُ اَلْعِيدَيْنِ مَعَ اَلْإِمَامِ سُنَّةٌ وَ لَيْسَ قَبْلَهُمَا وَ لاَ بَعْدَهُمَا صَلاَةٌ ذَلِكَ اَلْيَوْمَ إِلَى اَلزَّوَالِ.

"The prayer of the two Eids (Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha) with the Imam is a Sunnah, and there is no prayer before or after them on that day until noon (zawal)."

لَا صَلَاةَ فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ إِلَّا مَعَ إِمَامٍ وَ إِنْ صَلَّيْتَ وَحْدَكَ فَلَا بَأْسَ.

"There is no prayer on the two Eids (Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha) except with an Imam, but if you pray alone, there is no issue."

لَا صَلَاةَ يَوْمَ الْفِطْرِ وَ الْأَضْحَى إِلَّا مَعَ إِمَامٍ عَادِلٍ‌[3].

"There is no prayer on the day of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha except with a just Imam”.

صَلِّهِمَا رَكْعَتَيْنِ‌

Hadith.1457 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) was asked about the prayers of Eid al-Adha and Eid al-Fitr, and He said: "Pray them as two units (rak'ahs), either in congregation or individually, and say seven takbirs (Allahu Akbar) in the first rak'ah and five in the second”.

مَرِضَ أَبِي ع يَوْمَ الْأَضْحَى فَصَلَّى فِي بَيْتِهِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ ضَحَّى.

"My father (as) fell ill on the day of Eid al-Adha, so he prayed two units (rak'ahs) in his home and then offered the sacrifice."

مَنْ لَمْ يَشْهَدْ جَمَاعَةَ النَّاسِ فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ فَلْيَغْتَسِلْ وَ لْيَتَطَيَّبْ بِمَا وَجَدَ وَ يُصَلِّي فِي بَيْتِهِ وَحْدَهُ كَمَا يُصَلِّي فِي جَمَاعَةٍ[2].

"Whoever does not attend the congregation of people for the Eid prayers should perform the ritual bath (ghusl), apply whatever perfume is available, and then pray at home alone as he would pray in congregation”.

الْخُرُوجُ يَوْمَ الْفِطْرِ وَ الْأَضْحَى إِلَى الْجَبَّانَةِ حَسَنٌ لِمَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ الْخُرُوجَ إِلَيْهَا قَالَ فَقُلْتُ أَ رَأَيْتَ إِنْ كَانَ مَرِيضاً لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَخْرُجَ أَ يُصَلِّي فِي بَيْتِهِ فَقَالَ لَا[3].

Hadith.1460 - Harun ibn Hamzah al-Ghanawi narrates from Imam Jafar Al-Sadiq (as) said: "Going out on the day of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha to the open area (for prayer) is good for whoever is able to go." Harun asked: "What if a person is sick and unable to go out, should he pray at home?" Imam (as) replied: "No."

سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ غُسْلِ الْأَضْحَى- قَالَ وَاجِبٌ إِلَّا بِمِنًى‌[4].

I asked Imam (as) about the Ghusl (ritual purification bath) of Eid al-Adha. Imam (as) said: "It is obligatory except for those in Mina."

وَ رُوِيَ‌ أَنَّ غُسْلَ الْعِيدَيْنِ سُنَّةٌ.

Hadith.1462 - It has been narrated: "The Ghusl (ritual purification bath) for the two Eids is a Sunnah (recommended practice)."

سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلْمَرْأَةِ عَلَيْهَا غُسْلُ يَوْمِ اَلْجُمُعَةِ وَ اَلْفِطْرِ وَ اَلْأَضْحَى وَ يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ، قَالَ «نَعَمْ عَلَيْهَا اَلْغُسْلُ كُلُّهُ.

Hadith.1464 - Imam Ali (as) would eat on the day of Eid al-Fitr before heading to the prayer area, but on the day of Eid al-Adha, he would not eat until after performing the ritual sacrifice.

لَا تَخْرُجْ يَوْمَ الْفِطْرِ حَتَّى تَطْعَمَ شَيْئاً وَ لَا تَأْكُلْ يَوْمَ الْأَضْحَى شَيْئاً إِلَّا مِنْ هَدْيِكَ‌[1] وَ أُضْحِيَّتِكَ إِنْ قَوِيتَ عَلَيْهِ وَ إِنْ لَمْ تَقْوَ فَمَعْذُورٌ[2] قَالَ وَ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع كَانَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع لَا يَأْكُلُ يَوْمَ الْأَضْحَى شَيْئاً حَتَّى يَأْكُلَ مِنْ أُضْحِيَّتِهِ وَ لَا يَخْرُجُ يَوْمَ الْفِطْرِ حَتَّى يَطْعَمَ وَ يُؤَدِّيَ الْفِطْرَةَ ثُمَّ قَالَ وَ

If you are not able, then you are excu

Hadith.1466 - Hafs ibn Ghiyath narrated from Ja'far ibn Muhammad from his father (as) that He said: "The Sunnah (tradition) for the people of cities is to go out from their cities for the two Eid prayers, except for the people of Mecca, who pray in the Sacred Mosque (Masjid al-Haram)."

لَا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ تُصَلَّى صَلَاةُ الْعِيدَيْنِ فِي مَسْجِدٍ مُسَقَّفٍ وَ لَا فِي بَيْتٍ إِنَّمَا تُصَلَّى فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ أَوْ فِي مَكَانٍ بَارِزٍ.

"It is not appropriate for the Eid prayers to be performed in a covered mosque or in a house; rather, they should be prayed in the open air or in an exposed place."

هَذَا يَوْمٌ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَخْرُجُ فِيهِ حَتَّى يَبْرُزَ لآِفَاقِ السَّمَاءِ ثُمَّ يَضَعُ جَبْهَتَهُ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ.

Hadith.1468 - Al-Halabi narrated from Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) from his father (as) that when he would go out on the days of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, he would refuse to have a carpet (or mat) brought to him to pray on. He would say, "This is a day when the Messenger of Allah (sw) would go

قُلْتُ لَهُ أَ رَأَيْتَ صَلَاةَ الْعِيدَيْنِ هَلْ فِيهِمَا أَذَانٌ وَ إِقَامَةٌ قَالَ لَيْسَ فِيهِمَا أَذَانٌ وَ لَا إِقَامَةٌ وَ لَكِنْ يُنَادَى الصَّلَاةَ الصَّلَاةَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ وَ لَيْسَ فِيهِمَا مِنْبَرٌ الْمِنْبَرُ لَا يُحَرَّكُ مِنْ مَوْضِعِهِ- وَ لَكِنْ يُصْنَعُ لِلْإِمَامِ شِبْهُ الْمِنْبَرِ مِنْ طِينٍ فَيَقُومُ عَلَيْهِ فَيَخْطُبُ النَّاسَ ثُمَّ يَنْزِلُ.

Hadith.1469 - Isma'il ibn Jabir narrated from Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) that He said: "I asked him about the prayer of the two Eids (Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha), whether there is an Adhan (call to prayer) or Iqamah (second call to prayer) for them." Imam (as) said: "There is neither Adhan nor

لَا تَقْضِ وَتْرَ لَيْلَتِكَ‌[1] يَعْنِي فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ إِنْ كَانَ فَاتَكَ حَتَّى تُصَلِّيَ الزَّوَالَ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ.

"Do not make up the Witr prayer of your night, meaning on the two Eids, if you missed it until you have prayed the midday (Dhuhr) prayer on that day."

رَكْعَتَانِ مِنَ السُّنَّةِ لَيْسَ تُصَلَّيَانِ فِي مَوْضِعٍ إِلَّا بِالْمَدِينَةِ وَ تُصَلَّى فِي مَسْجِدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُخْرَجَ إِلَى الْمُصَلَّى لَيْسَ ذَلِكَ إِلَّا بِالْمَدِينَةِ لِأَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص فَعَلَهُ‌[3].

"There are two (units of prayer) from the Sunnah that are not performed in any place except in Medina, and they are prayed in the Mosque of the Messenger of Allah (sw) on the two Eids before going out to the prayer ground. This is unique to Medina because the Messenger of Allah (sw) performed it”.

كَانَتْ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص عَنَزَةٌ فِي أَسْفَلِهَا عُكَّازٌ[4] يَتَوَكَّأُ عَلَيْهَا وَ يُخْرِجُهَا فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ يُصَلِّي إِلَيْهَا[5].

"The Messenger of Allah (sw) had a staff with a pointed end, which he would lean on, and he would take it out on the two Eids and pray towards it”.

وَ سَأَلَ الْحَلَبِيُّ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع‌ عَنِ الْفِطْرِ وَ الْأَضْحَى إِذَا اجْتَمَعَا يَوْمَ‌

Hadith.1473 - Al-Halabi asked Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) about the Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha if they fall on a Jumu’ah. Imam (as) said: "This happened during the time of Imam Ali (as), and He said: 'Whoever wishes to attend the Jumu’ah prayer may do so, and whoever stays back, it will not harm him, but he

Hadith.1474 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) was asked about the verse of Allah (swt), the Exalted, "Successful indeed are those who purify themselves," (Surah Al-A'la 87:14).

Hadith.1475 - In the narration of al-Sakuni, it is reported that "When The Prophet (sw) went out for the Eid prayer, he would not return by the same path he took to go out; he would take a different path."

Hadith.1477 - Sa'd ibn Sa'd narrated from al-Ridha (as) regarding a traveler to Mecca or elsewhere, asking if the traveler is obligated to perform the Eid prayers (Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha). He (Imam (as)) said: "Yes, except in Mina on the Day of Sacrifice (Eid al-Adha)."

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص- إِذَا كَانَ أَوَّلُ يَوْمٍ مِنْ شَوَّالٍ نَادَى مُنَادٍ يَا أَيُّهَا الْمُؤْمِنُونَ اغْدُوا إِلَى جَوَائِزِكُمْ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا جَابِرُ جَوَائِزُ اللَّهِ لَيْسَتْ كَجَوَائِزِ هَؤُلَاءِ الْمُلُوكِ ثُمَّ قَالَ هُوَ يَوْمُ الْجَوَائِزِ.

Hadith.1478 - Jabir narrated from Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as) that The Prophet (sw) said: "When the first day of Shawwal (Eid al-Fitr) arrives, a caller announces, 'O’ believers, proceed to your rewards.'" Then He (the Prophet) said: "O’ Jabir, the rewards of Allah (swt) are not like the rewards of these kings.
