Assalamu alaykum Pakman39,

This has always puzzled me. I understand the problem with Ramadan and the moon sighting, and the matter is clear. But Eid al-Adha is to celebrate the end of Hajj, and the Hajj is at Makkah, so how could the day of Eid be on any day other than the day it is celebrated at Makkah?

Eid will be celebrated at Makkah tomorrow, Sunday, November 6. If your community is observing Eid on Monday, for whatever reason, then it would be best to celebrate with them and not divide the community over it. Salaat al-Eid is naafilah in any event, and may Allah reward you for it whenever you observe it.

Wa Allah a3lam.

السلام عليكم

Abu Marwan
