⁉️ For women who do not have access  to Eid Gah (place to offer Eid prayers) or do not have permission to go to Eid Gah, can they offer Eid prayers at home?

✅ Yes. If, for any reason, women are forbidden or are unable to go to Eid Gah, then they can gather in a house and offer Eid prayers at home.

🌟 According to Sharee'ah, there is nothing wrong with it and their prayer would be considered valid.

📝Method:

‼️If there are more than one woman, they would stand in a Saf together.

🎙️The woman leading the prayers would stand with them in the centre of the same Saf.

🔊 The Eid prayer would be offered with 12 Takbeeraat (اللّه اکبر)

☑️ The Eid prayer would be valid, even without the Khutbah.

💫 If the woman is alone, she can offer Eid prayer alone by herself. It would be valid.

😇 This is the ease bestowed by Allah and we should appreciate it.

💭 Is Eid prayer Wajib (obligatory) for women?

🔎 There is a difference of opinion while considering Eid prayers as obligatory for women.

🌴However, the majority of the scholars agree that women should go to Eid Gah.

📚 Umm Atiyah (may Allah be pleased with her) said:
🔸“The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) commanded us to bring out on al-Fitr and al-Adha the girls who had reached puberty, menstruating women and women in seclusion.
🚫The menstruating women were to keep away from the prayer but to witness goodness and the du’aa’ of the Muslims.
🧕🏻I said: O Messenger of Allah, one of us may not have a jilbaab. He said: “Let her sister lend her a jilbaab to wear.” 
✨ [Sahih Muslim: 890]

🕌 The women have been urged to offer Eid prayers and there is no difference of opinion regarding Eid prayers as confirmed Sunnah for women.
