Eid Sunnahs…and the Eid clothes that please your Lord and resemble you
“I was young, and I used to wait for Eid day so my father would wake me up to the sound of the Takbir (saying Allahu Akbar). Today, I’m the one who wakes up the girls, prepares their Eid outfits, and asks myself: Am I truly living the Eid traditions?”
Eid is not just about going out, breaking the fast with the family, or just a new outfit. Eid is an act of worship, and Sunnahs of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) refresh the heart if we truly live them.
Let’s reflect together:
🌙 Eid Sunnahs that we sometimes forget:
Ghusl before prayer
Wearing new and beautiful clothes (in a way that pleases our Lord)
Reciting the Takbir from dawn until the Eid prayer
Going early for prayer (if it suits you)
Changing your route upon returning from prayer
Wishing Muslims “May Allah accept it from us and from you”
Eating after the prayer (on Eid al-Adha)
Each of these Eid traditions has a different joy and spirit… and each of us can live it in her own way, with good intentions.
What about the clothes?
One of the most neglected traditions is to wear our “best” on Eid.
“Best” here doesn’t mean the most expensive or the boldest… but rather the cleanest, most beautiful, and closest to God’s pleasure.
That’s why Eid clothing isn’t a luxury or a fashion statement… it’s an act of worship and gratitude.
Wear Islamically-acceptable, loose, and elegant clothing… and enter the Eid prayer proudly, proudly embellishing obedience, not adorning sin.
👗 “Oswa” has created a set for you for Islamically-accepted joy:
Really loose-fitting clothing (flattering skirt, Islamically-accepted trousers, soft fabric)
Eid colors: beige, tan, nude, and royal black
Comfortable details for movement and photography
Fast shipping before Eid, and cash on delivery
Every set at “Aswa” is made with an intention. It’s an intention to revive a tradition, dress politely, and make people happy without compromising.
✨ Asma’s Story: The Sunnah of Dressing for Eid Regained the Taste of Obedience
“I used to consider Eid clothes as just a new outfit, and then forget about it. But last year, I decided to live Eid properly… I prepared my outfit early, chose a legitimate outfit from Aswa, and intended to wear it in accordance with the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). I felt an unnatural change! Every time I heard the Takbir (saying Allahu Akbar), I would look at my outfit and say, ‘Praise be to God, I dressed the way God loves.’ I took pictures with my children, prayed the Eid prayer, and every detail was different because the intention was different.”
