EID Takbeer
Eid has always been a joyous time in the UAE. The many traditions of this special time include festive dinners with family, gifts to loves ones, and offering special prayers. Eid prayers are most commonly performed in congregation at mosques and other designated venues, but in case you can’t attend such occasions, it’s also possible to perform the Eid prayer at home.
Reciting Takbeer-e-Tashreeq is compulsory for every adult Muslim male and female after every obligatory Salah performed with the congregation or individually. Women who are menstruating are not obliged to recite the Takbir.

- Exchange well-wishes with family members and friends by saying Taqabbalallahu Minna wa Minkum – May Allah accept (the worship) from us and from you
