How to pray Eid al-Fitr

As with the procedures for carrying out daily prayers, when you want to perform the Eid al-Fitr prayer, Muslims are advised to read their intentions first. It is sunnah to read the intention before Eid prayer. Meanwhile, being conscious and deliberate in your heart and soul to perform the Eid al-Fitr prayer is mandatory.
Intention is useful as a form of focusing oneself before undergoing worship that is full of reverence. Reading the intention for the prayer congregation requires the word ma'muman to be added when pronouncing it.
The reading of the intention for the Eid al-Fitr prayer is as follows:

" Ushall sunnatan li 'dil fithri rak'ataini (ma'mman/imman) lillahi ta'ala ."
" I intend to pray two rak'ahs of the Eid al-Fitr sunnah prayer (becoming a makmum/imam) because of Allah Ta'ala ."
2. Takbiratul ihram

The next step after saying the intention to pray for Eid al-Fitr is to perform takbiratul ihram. Just like the prayers that are done every day, the takbiratul ihram stage is carried out when you want to start the prayer service.
The takbiratul ihram movement is to raise both hands until they are level with the ears, while pronouncing the word takbir. In the Eid al-Fitr prayer, in the first rak'ah after completing the iftitah prayer, it is sunnah to recite the takbir 7 times with similar movements. The repeated takbir readings are as follows:

"Allahu akbar kabira, wal hamdu lillahi katsira, wa subhanallahi bukratan wa ashila"
"Allah is Great with all greatness, all praise be to Allah with much praise, Glory be to Allah, both morning and evening."
You can also read the following reading:

"Subhanallah wal hamdu lillah wa laa ilaaha illallah wallahu akbar"
Meaning: "Glory to Allah, all praise be to Allah, there is no god but Allah, Allah is great."
3. Reading Al-Fatihah

The next stage after completing takbiratul ihram is to read the Al-Fatihah letter. Reading Surah Al-Fatihah is one of the mandatory Eid al-Fitr prayers. Then, when you have finished reading Surah Al-Fatihah, Muslims are encouraged to read Surah Al-A'la in the first rak'ah.
If the two letters have been read, the next stage is the same as the usual prayer. Followed by bowing, i'tidal, prostration, and getting up again to perform the second rak'ah.
4. Second rak'ah

The procedure for the next Eid al-Fitr prayer is to stand and perform the takbir movement while reciting "Allahu Akbar" five times. In the time between these two takbirs, Muslims are encouraged to recite the takbir in the previous point.
After completing the takbir five times, continue with reading the Al-Fatihah letter and continue with the Al-Ghasiyah letter. If the reading of the short letter has been successfully read, then continue with the usual prayer movements, from bowing, i'tidal, prostrating, sitting for the final tahiyat, to saying greetings.
5. Listen to the Eid prayer sermon

After completing the Eid al-Fitr prayer, the congregation is advised not to rush home. However, the next activity is to listen to the Eid al-Fitr prayer sermon to the end. For preachers on duty, it is recommended to read the takbir nine times in the first sermon and also seven takbir times in the second sermon.
Listening to sermons is an activity to take in the preaching messages that are carried out on Eid. The hope is that after you hear the sermon you will be able to absorb all the good messages in it, to be implemented in your daily life later.
That is the procedure for Eid al-Fitr prayers, complete with intentions and readings between the takbir. The hope is that after you know the complete procedures for Eid al-Fitr prayers, you can perform the Eid al-Fitr prayers legally and according to the recommendations.
Perform the Eid al-Fitr prayer according to the guidance of Rasulullah SAW. May the entire series of worship on Eid al-Fitr always be blessed and blessed by Him.
