Eid Prayer<\/a> at Home<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Question:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Can we pray Eid at home during the lockdown?<\/span><\/p>\n

Answer:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

In the name of Allah, we praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the Maliki, Shafi\u2019i and Hanbali Schools of Sunni Islamic law, it is permissible, even in regular circumstances, for the one who misses the Eid Prayer at the mosque or musalla<\/em> to perform it at home, either individually or in congregation \u2013 though some Maliki jurists are of the opinion that it must be performed individually. There is no requirement, however, to have the sermon (khutbah<\/em>) delivered.<\/span><\/p>\n

Imam An-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him), the great Shafi\u2019i jurist, states, “Two views have been transmitted [in the Shafi\u2019i School] on whether the Eid prayer is legislated for a slave, traveller, woman and a person praying alone at home or elsewhere. The reliable and more renowned position is that it is legislated for them.” (Al-Majmu\u2019)<\/span><\/p>\n

As such, it is permitted f to perform the Eid prayer at home due to the current lockdown and the various mosques\/masajid remaining closed for the general public.<\/span><\/p>\n
