Imam Sadiq(as) said: Eid-e-Ghadeer is the greatest Eid of Allah(swt)
(Ref: Wasail ush shia, Vol 5, Pg 224)
The closed schools and workplaces, clean and shining roads, perfumed houses, happy smiling people with rose like faces, new dresses, variety of meals and the noise of playing kids, which day does you remember by all this??? Everyone will say that all these things are the signs of “Eid-day”. This is the atmosphere on “Eid-ul-Fitr” or Eid-ul-Azha”. The only difference between the two is that, “Fitra” is paid on one of the days and “Sacrifice” is offered on another.
Pleasure and happiness of these days are very important to everyone hence along with elders, the youths and children impatiently wait for the Eid-Day. Hence every year “Eid” is celebrated with great enthusiasm. People want to share the happiness, hence even if they don’t usually help the needy, on “Eid-Day” they make it a point to help. Besides this, if there happens to be death of someone’s family member before Eid and there is atmosphere of sorrow in that house, then in India and Pakistan usually the vermicelli is send and in other countries sweets are send to them.
You must be thinking that what’s the point in reminding all these things??? Well! There is definitely an aim behind it, which is to ask an important question.
The question is, whether these two are the only “Eids” for the celebrations and happiness????? There are two answers to this question.
First Yes! As there is no Eid for Muslims other than “Fitr” and Azha” (Friday is considered to be a weekly Eid with limited joy).
Second No! But the problem is that our way of Eid celebrations reveals something else, due to being influenced by common Muslims.
Those who believe in the Wilayat of Ahlulbait (as) do admit at heart and say that the Greatest Eid” is “Eid-ul-Ghadeer”.
But this belief has to be put in action, because there are a lot of Ahadith from Infallibles (as) on this matter
