The Blessed Festival of Eid ul Fitr
The festive occasion of Eid ul Fitr is a valuable present for Muslims. The hadith pertaining to it is narrated by Hazrat Anas (RA) in the following manner:
“Holy Prophet came to Madinah, the people had two days in which they used to entertain and amuse themselves. He asked: “What are these two days?” They said: “We used to amuse ourselves and take pleasure in these two days during the Days of Ignorance (jahiliyyah). The Messenger of Allah said, “Allah has substituted for you something better than these two; the Eid of Adha (sacrifice) and the Eid of Fitr.” [Sunan Abi Dawood]
From this hadith it is clear that the function or festival of Eid is a blessing from Allah Almighty so that Muslims could rejoice and celebrate. We must be thankful and modest in our celebrations and involve all those people who cannot afford to buy happiness on this Eid. Try to share their burden and bring a smile on their faces to please your soul and your God.
