Bayhaqi 6235 — The follower prays voluntary prayers

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو حَازِمٍ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ أَبُو أَحْمَدَ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْبَلْخِيُّ بِبَغْدَادَ، ثنا عَلِيٌّ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُسْلِمٍ الطُّوسِيَّ، ثنا أَبُو عَامِرٍ الْعَقَدِيُّ، ثنا عَوْنٌ الْحَارِثِيُّ، ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ بُرَيْدَةَ قَالَ: " رَأَيْتُ أَبِي تَوَضَّأَ فِي يَوْمِ عِيدٍ، ثُمَّ صَلَّى فِي أَهْلِهِ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ، ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِيَدِي فَخَرَجْنَا إِلَى الْمُصَلَّى، فَدَنَا قَرِيبًا مِنَ الْإِمَامِ حَيْثُ يَسْمَعُ، فَلَمَّا قُضِيَتِ الصَّلَاةُ لَمْ يُصَلِّ قَبْلَهَا وَلَا بَعْدَهَا بَعْدَ أَنْ يَخْرُجَ مِنْ أَهْلِهِ حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ، ثُمَّ صَلَّى فِي أَهْلِهِ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ لَمَّا رَجَعَ ".
Abdullah bin Buraydah (may Allah have mercy on him) says: I saw my father, Sayyiduna Buraydah (may Allah be pleased with him), performing ablution on the day of Eid; then he prayed four rak'ahs in his house, then he took my hand and we went to the place of Eid prayer, and he sat close to the imam where he could hear the sermon. When the prayer was completed, he did not pray before it or after it, until he returned to his house and prayed four rak'ahs in the house. Sa'id bin al-Musayyib (may Allah have mercy on him) used to pray before the imam on the day of Eid, and Urwah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah have mercy on him) used to pray before and after the prayer on the day of Eid al-Fitr. Al-Qasim bin Muhammad (may Allah have mercy on him) used to pray four rak'ahs before going to the place of Eid prayer, and Muhammad bin Sirin (may Allah have mercy on him) used to pray eight rak'ahs after the Eid.
Note: One group dislikes praying before and after the Eid, some people do not dislike praying after it, and some dislike praying in the place of Eid prayer but do not dislike praying in the mosque and at home on the day of Eid.
The day of Eid is like all other days, and once the sun has risen high, prayer becomes permissible wherever it is offered.
