Eid Mubarak

Assalamualaykum to my dearest Muslim brothers and sisters...

 .Eid Mubarak

I would like to take this opportunity to wish you, your colleagues and all your families a very happy, peaceful and blessed Eid.
Rabbana Taqabbal Siyaamana wa Qiyaamana wa Ruku'ana wa Sujoodana wa Kulli a'maalina fi Sabilika fi Shahri-Ramadan, Ameen.

May Allah (swt) accept our fasting, our prayers, our worship and all our good deeds done in the month of Ramadan, Ameen. 
 

The month of Shawwal has been chosen by Allah Almighty for the celebration of "Eid-ul-fitr", one of the only two annual festivals recognised by the Shari'ah. This happy day is designed by the Shari'ah as a sign of gratefulness by the Muslims on the accomplishment of Ramadan, and as an immediate reward by Allah for those who spent the month of Ramadan in fasting and performing other forms of ibadah. 

It had been the practice of the Prophet (saw) that he would not sleep in the night preceding the day of Eid-ul-fitr. This night has been named in a Hadith as the Night of Reward (Lailatul Jaiza). Almighty bestows his rewards on those who have spent the month of Ramadan abiding by the dictates of Shari'ah, and all their prayers in this night are accepted. Therefore, it is desirable to perform nafl prayers in this night. 

The Prophet (saw) is reported to have said:

Whoever stands up (in worship) in the nights preceding the two Eids expecting rewards from his Lord, his heart will not die when the other hearts will die. (Ibn Majah) 

Allah's Messenger (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) never proceeded (for the prayer) on the Day of Eid-ul-Fitr unless he had eaten some dates. 

Anas (radiallahu anhu) also narrated: The Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) used to eat odd number of dates.
