Praying two Rak’ah After ‘Eid Prayer at Home is Sunnah

It is legislated to perform two rak’ah after the ‘Eid prayer at home based on what was recorded by Ibn Maajah with a hasan chain from Aboo Sa’eed al-Khudree (may Allaah be pleased with him) who said: “The Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) does not pray anything before the ‘Eid [prayer], but when he returns to his house, he would perform two rak’ah.” Recorded by Ibn Maajah, Ahmad and al-Haakim who classified it saheeh and adh-Dhahabee agreed with him. It was graded hasan by al-Busayri, Ibn Hajar and al-Albaanee.
