The Timing of the Takbir on the Festival of Breaking the Fast and the Festival of Sacrifice

Question:
It is reported in a narration from Ahmad, Abu Thawr, Malik, and a group of the Salaf that they said there is no takbir except after the Fajr prayer on the day of the festival until the time of leaving for the festival prayer ground only. Is this correct, and is there evidence for it?

Answer:
No, the correct view is what you have heard: that in 'Id al-Fitr, the takbir begins from the confirmation of the new moon on the first night of Shawwal and continues until the festival prayer. As for 'Id al-Adha, the unrestricted takbir begins from the first of the ten days, and the restricted takbir begins for those who are not in the state of ihram from the Fajr of the Day of 'Arafah, and for those in the state of ihram from the 'Asr of the Day of Sacrifice, and it continues until the last days of the stoning. This is the well-known view and the one that has been transmitted.
