Summary
Festival takbir is divided into mursal takbir, which is not tied to prayer times, and muqayyad takbir, which is tied to the obligatory prayers. Mursal takbir is recommended on the night of both festivals, from the start of maghrib until the imam begins the festival prayer. Muqayyad takbir is recommended only for Eidul Adha, from after Fajr on the Day of Arafah until Asr on 13 Dhulhijjah according to the more correct view, and is recited after various prayers including voluntary, make-up and vowed prayers. Takbir should be recited aloud so people can hear it, while women need not raise their voices unless they are with a mahram or family members.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Takbir Muqayyad pula hanya disunatkan pada hari raya Eidul Adha sahaja dan tidak ada pada hari raya Eidul Fitri.
