Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : May Allah keep you safe. When does the time for the festival prayer begin, Honorable Shaykh?
Answer : It begins when the prohibited time ends after the sun has risen, meaning when one-third of an hour has passed, it is time to pray. However, it is better in 'Id al-Fitr to delay the prayer until people are able to give zakat al-fitr on the morning of the festival. As for 'Id al-Adha, it is better to advance the prayer as soon as the prohibited time ends, so that there is ample time for slaughtering the udhiyah. Yes.
