This year Hajj (Arafat Day) will be on Thursday, November 26th, 2009 corresponding to 9th Dhul-Hijjah. The first day of Dhul-Hijjah therefore falls on Wednesday, November 18th, 2009. Eid Al-Adha therefore will be on Friday, November 27th, 2009.

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to fast on the ninth of Dhu’l-Hijjah. Hunaydah ibn Khaalid reported from his wife that some of the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to fast on the ninth of Dhu’l-Hijjah, on the day of ‘Aashooraa’, on three days of each month, and on the first two Mondays and Thursdays of each month."  (Reported by al-Nisaa’i, 4/205 and by Abu Dawud; classified by al-Albaani as saheeh in Saheeh Abi Dawud, 2/462).   Takbeer. It is Sunnah to say Takbeer ("Allaahu akbar"), Tahmeed ("Al-hamdu Lillaah"), Tahleel ("La ilaha ill-Allaah") and Tasbeeh ("Subhaan Allaah") during the first ten days of Dhu’l-Hijjah, and to say it loudly in the mosque, the home, the street and every place where it is permitted to remember Allaah and mention His name out loud, as an act of worship and as a proclamation of the greatness of Allaah, may He be exalted. Men should recite these phrases out loud, and women should recite them quietly.

Salam,

If Eid falls on friday, are we supposed to come for jummah prayers or will be simply Zuhar prayer? I have heard that there can be only one Khutbah on a day.

We have to read Jummah as well. According to some schools of thought, you don't have to read Jummah but it is recomended to do so. According to Imam Abu Hanifah we still have to read Jummah.

Yes This Year Hajj will be on Thursday, and it will also be is Saudi Arabia not the UK.

Here is a example, fasting for example, if the fast starts at 6.00am in Saudi Arabia the time in the UK will not be 6.00am and the sunrise time will be diffrent so the fast wont start at the same time.

In the same way, in Islam and following Islamic calendar the day Eid is celebrated can vary throughout the world depanding on the part of the world you live in, therefore Eid should be celebrated on the day it falls on in your Counrty, not simply following Saudi Arabia.

If we follow Saudi Arabia for Eid why dont we follow them for our prayer times when the sun rises and sets over the Kaaba. Think about it, it might be silly thing to suggest but im trying to bring a point to the peoples attention, Eid should be celebrated on the Day it falls on in our country, now when it is in Saudi arabia, we are not there, we are here.
