The Prayer of the Two Eids — Hadith 1487

dden matters, and reveals secrets. Allahu Akbar, the greatness of the dominion belongs to Him, the might of the power is His, the Living who never dies, the Eternal who never ceases to exist. When He decrees a matter, He only says to it, 'Be, ' and it is. Allahu Akbar, before whom all voices become silent, all faces bow in humility, all sights are bewildered, and all tongues fall short of expressing His greatness. Every forelock is in His hand, and the measure of all matters is in His control. None decrees except Him, and nothing is fulfilled except through Him. Allahu Akbar, His preservation encompasses all things, His might overcomes all things, His command prevails over all things, and all things are established by Him. Everything humbles itself before His greatness, surrenders to His might, submits to His power, and yields to His sovereignty. Then you recite Surah Al-Hamd (Al-Fatiha) and 'Wa al-Shams wa Duhaaha' (Surah Ash-Shams). You perform the Ruku after the seventh Takbir. In the second Rak'ah, you repeat the Takbir and say: 'Allahu Akbar, I bear witness that there is no god but Allah (swt), alone, without partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and messenger. O’ Allah (swt), You are worthy of majesty and greatness. '
You continue in this way for each Takbir until you complete the five Takbirs. The khutbah (sermon) for the Eid prayers is delivered after the prayer. "
