On Eid day these things are sunnah (desirable):
(1) Cutting hair (cut your hair according to sunnah (locks) and not according to the english fashion).
(2) Cutting Nails.
(3) Taking a bath.
(4) Doing Miswak (cleaning of teeth with a Miswak, this is apart from miswak done during ablution, since it is Sunnat-e-Mo'ak'kadah (essentially stressed).
(5) Wear nice clothes, if new wear them, otherwise wear washed ones.
(6) To put fragrance oil (whenever you put fragrance oil make sure it is pure oil.
(7) Wearing ring (whenever you wear a ring keep in mind that it should be not more than 4 grammes, in weight of silver and wear only one ring. There should be only one stone in this ring. Not more than one stone, and don't wear without a stone. There is no limit for the weight of the stone. Apart from a ring of silver or the amount of weight of silver allowed, a ring made of any other metal another ring cannot be worn.
(8) Offer the Fajr (morning) prayer in the mosque in your locality.
(9) Before going to Eid-ul-Fitr prayer, eating some dates – iii, v, vii or more or less. But they should be in odd numbers. If dates are not available then eat something sweet. Even if nothing is eaten before the prayers, then it is not a sin, but if nothing is eaten till Isha (night) prayer then he will be reprimanded.
(10) To offer Eid prayer in Eid-Gah (especial ground for Eid prayer only).
(11) To go walking to the Eid-Gah.
(12) There is no harm in going on any sort of transport, but for the one who can walk it is most prominent for him to do so, and there is no harm in coming back on any sort of transport.
(13) When going for Eid prayers choose one path, and when coming back come on from another path.
(14) Before Eid prayers giving Sadqa-e-Fitr (charity) (it is most prominent to give before Eid prayer but if cannot then give after the prayer).
(15) Showing happiness.
(16) Give a lot of charities.
(17) To go to Eid-Gah relaxed and dignified, with eyes kept down.
(18) Give greetings to one another.
(19) After Eid prayer shaking hands, and embracing one another, like the usual custom of the muslims, is even better, since it shows affection.(BAHAR-E-SHARIAT)
(20) Eid–ul-Adha is like Eid-ul-Fitr in every sense except for that in Eid-ul-Adha it is desirable not to eat anything before prayer, whether he wants to give sacrifice or not, and if he ate before then there is no harm.
(21) While going for Eid-ul-Fitr prayer on the way one should slowly say “Takbeer”. And while going for Eid-ul-Adha one should say the “Takbeer” loudly on the way. The following is called “Takbeer”:
"Allah is most great. Allah is most great. There is no one else worth Worshipping except for Allah and Allah is most great. Allah is most Great and all the praise is for Allah."
