The follower prays voluntary prayers before and after the Eid prayer at home, in the mosque, on his way, at the prayer ground or wherever he can

Sa'id bin Abi Sa'id al-Maqburi narrates from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah! At which hour of the day and night would you forbid me to pray?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When you have prayed the Fajr prayer, refrain from prayer until the sun has risen high, for it rises between the two horns of Satan. Then the angels attend the prayer, and it is accepted until midday. When it is midday, refrain from prayer until the sun declines, for at that time Hell is stoked, since the intensity of the heat is from the blast of Hell. Then, when the sun has declined, it is a prayer that the angels attend and it is accepted until you pray the Asr prayer. After the Asr prayer, refrain from prayer until the sun sets; then it is a prayer that the angels attend and it is accepted as well, until you pray the Fajr prayer."

Sulayman al-Taymi (may Allah have mercy on him) says: I saw Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him), Hasan bin Abi al-Hasan (may Allah have mercy on him), Jabir bin Zayd (may Allah have mercy on him) and Sa'id bin Abi al-Hasan (may Allah have mercy on him) praying before the imam on the day of Eid.

Sulayman al-Taymi (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from Abdullah al-Danaj (may Allah have mercy on him): I saw Abu Burdah (may Allah be pleased with him) praying before the imam on the day of Eid.

Ayyub says: I saw Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) come on the day of Eid and pray before the imam came out.
Abbas bin Sahl says that he saw the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) praying two rak'ahs each in the mosque on the day of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, and then they would not return to it (would not pray it again).
Isa bin Sahl narrates from his grandfather in marfu' form: "He would seat his sons in the mosque until the sun had risen, then he would pray two rak'ahs, then go to the place of Eid prayer."
Ibn Abi Dhi'b says: I asked Isa bin Sahl whether they also used to pray it again. He said: I do not know.

(a) Ibn Abi Dhi'b narrates from Shu'bah, the freed slave of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both): I used to lead Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) to the place of Eid prayer; he would offer voluntary prayer in the mosque, and then would not come back to it again. (b) Azraq bin Qays narrates from them: I heard from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) about a man who used to pray on the day of Eid before the imam came out and before the prayer. He said: Allah Almighty does not turn back upon a servant the good deed that he does for Him.

Husayn (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from Ibn Buraydah (may Allah have mercy on him) that Buraydah (may Allah be pleased with him) used to pray before the imam on the day of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha.

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.
