Here are the key points on Eid ul-Adha prayer etiquette:
* **Prepare:** Perform *Ghusl* (ritual bath), wear best clean clothes, and **do NOT eat** before the prayer (unlike Eid ul-Fitr). Recite Takbir en route.
* **Arrive & Pray:** Go early to the mosque or prayer ground. Pray in congregation, maintain silence, and line up properly.
* **During Prayer:** Follow the Imam carefully. There are 2 *rak'ahs* with extra Takbirs: **7** in the first *rak'ah* (after opening Takbir), and **5** in the second *rak'ah* (before recitation). Listen attentively to the Khutbah (sermon) afterward.
* **After Prayer:** Greet others ("Eid Mubarak"), take a different route home (Sunnah), and perform the sacrifice (Qurbani) if applicable.
* **General:** Distribute sacrificial meat to family, friends, and the needy. Engage in charity, maintain joy/gratitude, avoid prohibited acts, and include family/community.
* **Key Notes:** Women are encouraged to attend (including those menstruating, for the Khutbah). Prayer time is after sunrise & before Zuhr. Follow local Imam for minor variations (e.g., exact Takbir count).
After the daily visit to the clinic we stopped at the Palm Strip mall opposite Jumeirah grand mosque. Even better views of the mosque and Burj Khalifa. You can hear the Adhan (call to prayer) from the mall. When it was time for prayers i just crossed the road. The masjid is even more beautiful inside. once inside we are all the same from the millionaires with their expensive 4 wheel drive hummers, landcruisers and BWM's to the dock workers. No difference all muslims attending the friday prayers.
