The Eid Gah of every City needs to be Separate

Q: Salaah-548: We have purchased a piece of land for an Eid Gah which is out of our city and falls within the boundaries of another city. Can our Eid Gah fatl within the boundaries of another city?

Answer: The Eid Gah of every city needs to be separate from that of another. The Eid Gah within another city will remain the Eid Gah of the host city, but your Eid salaah there will be valid. You should therefore make an effort to secure a site in your own city. You may use another site outside the city if nothing else is suitable and if even this'is not possible, you may perform the salaah in the Jaami Masjid of your city. And Allaah knows best what is most correct.
