Narrated by Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both): The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to go out (to the Eid ground) on the days of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha carrying a spear, which he would place as a sutrah (barrier) and then perform the prayer behind it, and after the prayer he would deliver the sermon.
