Method of Performing Eid Salaah The Eid Prayer has two rakah to perform in the normal way, with the only addition of six Takbeers, three of them in the beginning of the first rakah, and three of them just before ruku in the second rakah. The Imam will begin the prayer without Adhaan or Iqamah. The detailed way of performing the Eid prayer is as follows: 1. Make Niyyah “I am performing two rak’ah Eid ul-Adhaa (or Eid ul-Fitr) Waajib with six extra Takbeers behind this Imam.” 2. After making your Niyyah follow the Imam by raising your hands up to your ears and reading Takbeer-e-Tahreema ‘Allahu Akbar’ and then fold the hands below the navel 3. Read the Thana, thereafter the Imam will read three extra Takbeers ‘Allahu Akbar’, at each Takbeer follow the Imam by raising your hands to the ears reciting ‘Allahu Akbar’ in a low voice and then dropping your hands to the sides 4. At the call of the third Takbeer, the hands will be folded in the normal way below the navel; the rak’ah will then be completed as normal 5. In the second rak’ah after the recitation of the Quran, the Imam will call out the three extra Takbeers. At each Takbeer you should raise your hands up to the ears, and after saying ‘Allahu Akbar bring them down and leave them down, and at the call of the fourth Takbeer everyone will go into Ruku and complete the rest of the Salaah in the normal way
