حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ
شَهِدْتُ الْعِيدَ مَعَ عُمَرَ، فَبَدَأَ بِالصَّلَاةِ قَبْلَ الْخُطْبَةِ وَقَالَ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَهَى عَنْ صِيَامِ هَذَيْنِ الْيَوْمَيْنِ أَمَّا يَوْمُ الْفِطْرِ، فَفِطْرُكُمْ مِنْ صَوْمِكُمْ، وَأَمَّا يَوْمُ الْأَضْحَى، فَكُلُوا مِنْ لَحْمِ نُسُكِكُمْ.

✧ I attended the Eid prayer with Umar. He began with the prayer before the sermon and said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade fasting on these two days: as for the day of Fitr, it is your breaking fast from your fasting; and as for the day of Adha, eat from the meat of your sacrifices.
