What is the whole purpose of the Eid Salaah?

Answer By Dr Zakir Naik,As far as the purpose of the Eid Salaah is that Allah makes that Allah makes it on us that we should make our social lifestyle that it should be seen that we believe in God consciousness, we believe in Taqwa. And the best example that we have s the 5 times daily congregation Salaah. Muslims gather together and we show the Taqwa that we should have that God Consciousness, people are aware of it, it’s seen in our social life, the bigger gathering is the Jummah Salaah and the biggest local gathering is the 2 Eid Salaah and the largest annual gathering in the full world is the Hajj gathering.
In Hajj gathering people from different part of the world gather but the local largest 2 gatherings are the 2 Salaah for Eidain, that’s the purpose and secondly the bigger gathering that we have, it shows our strength, we get introduced to Muslims and our love to Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) our servitude. That’s the reason Prophet said you should go to the Eidga so that there should be one big gathering rather than multiple small gatherings so the people will come to know the strength of the Muslims and it boosts up the morals of the Muslims. “O I didn’t know that in 2 small regions, 50,000 Muslims!” and for the non-believers, they will think 10 times before making mischief. “50,000 Muslims!” the will think 10 times, they will think 1000 times before making mischief. So these also work on the same psychology and I feel that that’s very important and that’s the reason even the children, even the menstruating women should go even if they cannot offer Salaah so that the gathering is bigger and it’s good, the unity of the Muslim Ummah is shown.
