Eid meaning
The Arabic root of the word 'Eid' is 'Aud'. It means that which comes back again and again. Eid in conventional sense means joy or happiness. As this year of joy or happiness comes around, it is named 'Eid'. The word 'fitr' means to break, to break the fast. Eid-ul-Fitr means the joyous festival that comes after a long month of fasting.
Sharing the joy of Eid
Eid means the festival of returning home. During Eid, a large number of people leave the city and go to the village to share the joy of Eid with their relatives. Most people have already left Dhaka. Now people are traveling smoothly by road, sea or air. Along with the main roads of Dhaka, Oligli does not have the usual traffic jams. Most of the places except shopping malls and markets are not crowded. Dhaka is like another Dhaka. The mood of Eid has started in 'Fanka' Dhaka.
Eid is not fun and easy
Eid is not just about joy and fun; There are many things to learn from this for our life. Eid-ul-Fitr is established as the best festival of religious and national life of Muslims. Happy Eid comes at the end of the mercy, forgiveness and salvation of the holy Ramadan. The silver moon of Shawwal rising in the western sky excites our mind and soul with a message of joy. There is nothing happier in the mind of the fasting person than this moment. As soon as the moon of Shawwal rises, the house of every believing Muslim is filled with joy. The Prophet (PBUH) said, 'Every nation has its joy. Eid is our joy.'
Giving fitra before prayer
Before Eid, it is necessary for every Muslim woman, child, and even a new-born child to perform the prescribed Fitrah. Since the needy spend Eid with Fitra money, it is best to collect this money a few days before Eid. Giving fitrah is not a favor to anyone. This is part of our worship. Those whom Allah Almighty has given wealth, no matter how much they give in the way of Allah and to the poor and needy, it will not diminish his wealth; Rather, it will continue to grow.
Music gives fulfillment
An Eid song is very popular in Bengali speaking regions of the world, especially in Bangladesh. From the night before Eid, television, radio, street side shops, markets started playing everywhere, 'O man, at the end of that fast of Ramadan, happy Eid has come'. This one song alone is enough to announce Eid-ul-Fitr.
The timeless song is by poet Nazrul
The timeless song of Eid-ul-Fitr written by National Poet Kazi Nazrul Islam, 'O Man Ramzaner Oi Roza Elo Khushir Eid' is an essential part of Bengali Muslims' Eid festival. Poet Nazrul composed and composed this song in 1931 at the request of Abbas Uddin Ahmad, the poet's disciple. Four days after writing the song, the song was recorded in the voice of artist Abbas Uddin. The record was first released just before Eid, two months after it was recorded. Gramophone publishes company records.
The song on everyone's lips
And at the end of the fast of Ramadan, the happy Eid came
You give yourself today, listen to the heavenly urge.
Your gold and grain, Balakhana all the way Lillah
Give zakat, the dead Muslim sleeps today
At the end of the fast of Ramadan, the happy Eid came.
Worship with Eid joy
The festivals of Islam are regarded as acts of worship along with joy. Similarly, after fasting for a long month, one of the characteristics of Eid-ul-Fitr or Eid is to give more charity to spread joy. It is obligatory on every able-bodied Muslim (even if he is a child) to pay the Fitrah. And here is the significance of the name Eid-ul-Fitr. In fact, the real Eid is not to suffer but to sacrifice. Eid is to devote oneself to the welfare of people in the glory of sacrifice and this sacrifice is the lesson of fasting. Allah says to those who come to the Eid prayer ground, 'Go home, I have forgiven you'.
