Q:
What is the ruling on someone who fasts on the Day of ‘Eid despite knowing that it is the Day of ‘Eid?
(Part No. 10; Page No. 214)
A:
It is not permissible to fast on the Day of ‘Eid based on the Sahih (authentic) Hadiths reported from the Prophet (peace be upon him) that forbid observing Sawm (Fast) on the days of ‘Eid-ul-Fitr (the Festival of Breaking the Fast) and ‘Eid-ul-Adha (the Festival of the Sacrifice). Muslim scholars have agreed by Ijma‘ (consensus) on the prohibition of this. Anyone who does this should make Tawbah (repentance to Allah) and resolve never to do it again.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
