The Takbīrs for the Day of ‘Eid and Greetings
It is from the Sunnah of ‘Eid to recite the takbīrs, and there is no specific restriction in time, and the men should raise their voice with it, but the women recite it to themselves (when in public).
It is recited in the night before the ‘Eid day and throughout the ten days of Dhul-Hijjah (which precede ‘Eid Al-Adhā). Allah, the Most High, said:
وَلِتُكْمِلُوا الْعِدَّةَ وَلِتُكَبِّرُوا اللَّهَ عَلَى مَا هَدَاكُمْ
“Allah wants for you to complete the period and to glorify Allah for that to which He has guided you and perhaps you will be grateful.” (2:185)
It(Takbir) is recited aloud in the homes, the market places, in the mosques and in every place where it is permitted to mention Allah’s remembrance. On the ‘Eid day recite it aloud when leaving your homes for the outdoor prayer area (musallā).
It has reported by Ad-Dāruqutni and others from Ibn ‘Umar (radiyallāhu ‘anhumā) that he would leave out on the day of ‘Eid Al-Fitr and Adhā and raise his voice with the takbīrs until he reached the place of prayer. Then he would carry on reciting the takbīr out aloud until the imām arrived.
Ibn ‘Uthaimeen (rahimahullāh) said: “The takbīrs of ‘Eid Al-Fitr begin from the setting of the Sun (maghrib) on the last day of Ramadān until the imām arrives to lead the ‘Eid prayer.” (Majmū’ Al-Fatāwā, 16/259)
