Summary
Pilgrims who are performing Hajj on the 10th of Dhul Hijjah are not recommended to pray Eid al-Adha in congregation, but it remains recommended for them to pray it individually. Al-Bujairimi states that praying it in congregation is better left undone for pilgrims. The reason is that pilgrims are expected to focus on the rites of Hajj, such as tahallul and stoning the three jamrahs.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Umat Islam yang sedang mengerjakan ibadat haji pada hari ke-10 Zulhijjah tidak disunatkan untuk solat sunat hari raya aidiladha secara berjemaah namun masih disunatkan untuk mengerjakannya secara bersendirian.
