The time for takbir on the festival day, according to the report that it is only after the dawn prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
Therefore, the lessons will be suspended, if Allah wills, until the beginning of the month of Muharram. Yes.

The questioner:
A report has been transmitted 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, and only until the time of leaving for the festival prayer ground. Is this correct? Is there evidence for it?

The Shaykh:
No, the correct view is what you have heard. The correct view is that in 'Id al-Fitr, the one who begins the takbir does so from the confirmation of the new moon on the first night of Shawwal, and it 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 for those who are in the state of ihram begins from the dawn of the Day of 'Arafah, and for those who are not in the state of ihram, it begins from the afternoon of the Day of Sacrifice and extends to the last of the days of Tashriq. This is the well-known position and the one that has been transmitted.
