1291 - مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَدِيُّ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «خَرَجَ فَصَلَّى بِهِمُ الْعِيدَ، لَمْ يُصَلِّ قَبْلَهَا وَلَا بَعْدَهَا»

Commentary
Unlike the obligatory prayers that are preceded and followed by Nafl Rak'ah, be they emphasized or unemphasized Sunnah, there are no such Rak'ah, either before or after the 'Eid prayers. Thus, praying no other prayer on this occasion is the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ.
