Sunan Abi Dawud 1148 (Book 2, Hadith 759) #21440
Praying 'Id Prayer Without Adhan and Iqamah

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ prayed the 'Id prayer many times without the adhan and iqamah.

Jabir b. Samurah said: I prayed the 'Id prayer with the Prophet not once or twice (but many times) without the adhan and the iqamah.
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَهَنَّادٌ، - وَهَذَا لَفْظُهُ - قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ حَرْبٍ - عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ، قَالَ صَلَّيْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ غَيْرَ مَرَّةٍ وَلاَ مَرَّتَيْنِ الْعِيدَيْنِ بِغَيْرِ أَذَانٍ وَلاَ إِقَامَةٍ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ used to pray the 'Id prayer without an adhan or iqamah. An adhan is a call to prayer that is made before each of the five daily prayers in Islam. An iqama is a similar call that is made just before beginning each of these prayers. In this hadith, Jabir b. Samurah reported that he prayed with the Prophet ﷺ on multiple occasions for 'Id prayer without either an adhan or an iqama being called out beforehand. This shows us how important it was for Muslims to come together as a community and celebrate special occasions like Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha even during times when there were no mosques or other places of worship available yet. It also teaches us that we should not be too strict in our religious practices but rather be flexible when necessary so as to ensure that everyone can participate in communal activities such as praying together on special days like Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha regardless of their circumstances at any given time.
