The questioner : May Allah reward the honorableThe Shaykh : I hope you will clarify for me the manner of the festival prayer, and whether the takbir of entering the prayer is counted among the specified takbirs. Please benefit me, may Allah benefit you, and what is the last time for zakat al-fitr?

The Shaykh : As for the festival prayer, there is disagreement among the scholars regarding the number of takbirs. However, the position of Imam Ahmad and his followers is that one says six takbirs in the first rak'ah, in addition to the takbir of entering the prayer, because the takbir of entering the prayer is a pillar, and the additional takbirs are a recommended practice. As for the second rak'ah, one says five takbirs. As for the takbir from prostration to standing, this is not counted among the takbirs of standing, because the takbir from prostration to standing is in its place between prostration and standing. But the takbir that occurs after one has fully stood up in the second rak'ah, its number is only five. So how many are the additional takbirs? Eleven: six in the first and five in the second. And the end of the question.

The questioner : The last time for zakat.

The Shaykh : As for the last time for paying zakat al-fitr, it is the prayer
If anyone pays it before the prayer (of 'Id), it will be accepted as zakat. If anyone pays it after the prayer, that will be a sadaqah like other sadaqahs (alms). من أداها قبل الصلاة فهي زكاة مقبولة ومن أداها بعد الصلاة فهي صدقة من الصدقات
Sunan Abi Dawud 1609Hasan (Al-Albani)
But if, for example, a person forgot, or if he had appointed someone and relied on him and the agent forgot, or if he did not know about the festival because it came suddenly and he went out to the prayer, then in these situations and similar ones, he pays zakat al-fitr after the prayer, and there is no blame on him, because he is excused. Yes.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : In the second.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Yes, if the ma'mum arrives and the imam is in the middle of the takbirs, he says the takbir of entering the prayer and follows the imam in the remaining takbirs only, and he does not make up for them, but rather he listens to the imam's recitation.

The questioner : And the second, O Shaykh.

The Shaykh : And likewise the second.

The questioner : If he is a masbuq.

The Shaykh : That is, if he makes up his missed portion, if he makes up, he says takbir, he says takbir, if he makes up the takbir of the last rak'ah, that is, five takbirs.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : There is disagreement among the scholars. We do not want you to see that the oral question is originally prohibited, but what are we to do.
