Question 291) - Is Takbir proclaimed on the way when going to the Salah of the two ?Id?

A: Takbir is recited roudry on the way to the Musalla on the Day of Adha according to our three Imams. On the Day of Fitr Takbir is recited according to the two besides Imaam Abu Hanifa RAH. That is according to al-Quduri. According to al-FAtawa al-Hindiyah Takbir is recited loudly on the way on al-Adha and stops when one reaches the Musalla. On the Day of Fitr the preferred view is that it is not recited loudly. It is Mustahab to resite softly as per al-Jawharah an_Nayirah (150/1). This shows that the difference regarding Takbir on Fitr is regarding method and not the Takbir itself. See Ibn 'Abidin's commentary on ad-Durr al-Mukhtar (558/1).
