Eid should continue Ramadan’s worship by deepening remembrance of Allah, solidarity with the poor, unity among believers, and concern for oppressed people everywhere.

The khutbah in 6 steps

  1. Presents Eid as a divine reward after Ramadan and urges gratitude to Allah and emulation of the Prophet.
  2. Warns worshippers not to undo Ramadan by returning to sinful behavior after Eid.
  3. Calls for zakat al-fitr and shared celebration with the poor, weak, and destitute.
  4. Connects Eid with remembrance of Qiyama, visiting graves, removing hatred, community unity, and continuing worship after Ramadan.
  5. Uses a hadith and current violence in Parachinar and Syria to urge concern, dua, awareness, and communication with political leaders.
  6. Invokes Karbala and Imam Ali’s ethic of shared humanity to defend the rights of Muslims and non-Muslims before closing with prayers.

For the dinner table

Sheikh Ayub reminds us that Eid is a joyful gift after Ramadan and a time to thank Allah for our blessings. We honor that gift by following the Prophet's teachings and continuing our worship after Ramadan ends. Our happiness should include others, especially people in need, which is why he highlights zakatul fitrah. He encourages us to remove hatred from our hearts, remember those who have died, and reflect on our own return to Allah. He also asks us to remember people facing oppression through dua, raising awareness, and standing up for the rights of all people.
