On hearing the name Eid, the picture of sweet vermicelli and sheer suddenly emerges in the mind. It may also happen that we correct ourselves and accept that it is Bakrid and not Meethi. Often people get confused at the mention of Eid. If you also have the same problem, today all your confusion will be cleared. Before this, let us tell you that today is Eid-Milad-un-Nabi. This day has special significance among Muslims.
According to Shariat, there are only two Eids – one is Eid-ul-Fitr and the other is Eid-ul-Azha. Milad-un-Nabi is also considered like Eid. The arrival of Eid depends on the Hijri calendar i.e. the movements of the moon. You must have heard that the moon of Eid has been seen. The sighting of the moon on special occasions indicates that the next day is Eid.
Here we will tell you about Eid-ul-Fitr , Eid-ul-Azha and Eid-Milad-un-Nabi. Apart from this, we will also try to understand their importance.
Eid means day of happiness
Shahi Imam of Delhi's Fatehpuri Mosque, Mufti Mukarram Ahmed Sahab told 'Eid is a day of celebration. Eid-ul-Fitr and Eid-ul-Azha are mentioned in the Shariat and prayers are offered for both of them, but there is no special prayer for Eid-Milad-un-Nabi. Eid-Milad-un-Nabi is also a happy occasion. On this day Muslims present Aqidat. This day is to remember the teachings of Hazrat Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam), because Allah sent him as a mercy for the entire humanity.
Hazrat Muhammad's (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) teachings of mercy, peace, and service to people are for the entire humanity. The day of Eid-Milad-un-Nabi gives us an opportunity to follow the noble path like Hazrat Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam), and serve humanity.
Eid-ul-Fitr
Eid-ul-Fitr is also known as Eid-al-Fitr and Meethi Eid. The festival of Eid is celebrated on the next day of Ramzan. According to Islam, Ramadan is considered the purest month. Muslims all over the world observe fast this month, offer prayers with restrictions, recite the Quran, and pay Zakat, the Islamic charity.
The reward for this is Eid-ul-Fitr. Eid prayers are offered the next day after the end of Ramzan. Depending on the date of the moon, Meethi Eid falls on a different date every year.
Eid-ul-Azha
Eid-ul-Azha is also called Eid-ul-Zuha and Bakrid. Special importance is given to sacrifice on this day. Muslims all over the world remember the teachings of Prophet of Islam Hazrat Ibrahim Alaihissalam on the day of Eid to follow the orders of Allah. According to Islamic belief, Allah had asked Hazrat Ibrahim Alaihissalam to sacrifice his son Hazrat Ismail Alaihissalam.
It was only for a test that Hazrat Ibrahim (peace be upon him) agreed to sacrifice his son on the orders of Allah. Allah liked their intention, and a Dumba (a species of goat) was sacrificed in place of Hazrat Ismail. Eid-ul-Azha is celebrated every year in memory of their unwavering faith in Allah. Bakrid begins on the tenth day of the Islamic month of Zil-Hijj, which is the 12th and last month of the Hijri calendar.
eid-milad-un-nabi
The day of Eid-Milad-un-Nabi is considered to be the birth of the last prophet of Islam, Hazrat Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam). This day is also considered as his departure from this world. Eid Milad-un-Nabi, also known as Barah Rabiul-ul-Awwal and Barawafat, is celebrated on the 12th of the Islamic month of Rabi al-Awwal.
On this day the whole world remembers the message of truth and peace of Hazrat Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam). Worship takes place in mosques, namaz is offered, and recitation of the Quran continues. On this day, one should recite Durood Sharif without exercising. Helping the poor has special importance in Islam, hence Sadaqah and Khairat i.e. charity is also done.
