Question:
He also asks: What is the wisdom behind going out on one route on the day of Eid and returning on another?
Answer:
It is following the example of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), for when he went out to the Eid prayer, he would return by a different route. It is said, and Allah knows best, that this is so that the places that testify for him on the Day of Resurrection may be numerous. It is also said that the intention is for everyone on the routes to benefit by seeing the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and asking him questions. Yes.
