The questioner:
If Allah wills, going out to the prayer ground is best immediately after the Fajr prayer, right?
The Shaykh:
Yes, yes.
The questioner:
He does not go back to his house to eat his dates.
The Shaykh:
Note: he eats them and then goes out.
The questioner:
Meaning, he goes out early.
The Shaykh:
Yes, after the prayer, after the Fajr prayer.
The questioner:
Good, if Allah wills, He will guide you.
The Shaykh:
Dates, an odd number, before he goes out on the day of Eid al-Fitr. He goes out reciting the takbir until he prays at the Eid mosque. He recites the takbir from the Eid mosque. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would take an odd number of dates, three or five or seven, an odd number. This is the best before he goes out to the prayer ground. May Allah send prayers and blessings upon him. May Allah send prayers and blessings upon him.
