Why is Eid al F important?
What is the significance of Eid al-Fitr prayer?
Salah-ul-Eid is contemplated as a sunnah, which is a legal precedent and related to the teachings of Prophet Muhammad. Salah is wajib, which means it is essential to perform. It is fard kifaya or communal obligation, an act of worship which depends upon the school of thought or madhab that you follow in Islam.
