Keep in mind the pleasure of Allah and uphold Shari'ah at ALL times.
Adorn yourself and your family modestly in the best of garments (not necessarily new).
Avoid overeating and other festivities that have no benefit. Visit the poor, needy, orphans, elderly and sick.
Should Eid be made at "my mum or your mum or wherever?" This requires Shura/Mashurah (mutual consultation). Shurah is a Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (Sallalaho alaihe wassallam).Try to compromise and accommodate each other.
Maintain and strengthen family bonds- Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi wa Sallam) is reported to have said, " Anyone who wishes to have his means of livelihood enlarged and prolonged life, should treat his relatives with kindness. "(Hadith)
Don't forget the suffering, oppressed, poor, and needy Muslims in all parts of the world in your du'as and charity. Be punctual with our acts of worship on this joyous day.
BE CAUTIOUS! - Avoid excessive indulgence of any kind and stay away from places where the laws of Islam are violated. It is a joyous occasion indeed and let it be spent in ways that are pleasing to our Creator.
Use the day profitably to earn the pleasure of Allah Ta'ala and continue to do so every day. A Muslim is Muslim for life and not just during Ramadaan.
