1290. It was narrated that 'Abdullâh bin Sâ'ib said: "I attended the 'Eid prayer with the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ. He led us in offering the 'Eid prayer, then he said: 'I have finished the prayer. Whoever wants to sit (and listen to) the sermon, then let him sit, and whoever wants to leave, then let him leave.'" (Sahih)
1290 - حَدَّثَنَا هَدِيَّةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ، وَعَمْرُو بْنُ رَافِعٍ الْبَجَلِيُّ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُوسَى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ، قَالَ: حَضَرْتُ الْعِيدَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَصَلَّى بِنَا الْعِيدَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «قَدْ قَضَيْنَا الصَّلَاةَ، فَمَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَجْلِسَ لِلْخُطْبَةِ فَلْيَجْلِسْ، وَمَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ فَلْيَذْهَبْ» بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ قَبْلَ صَلَاةِ الْعِيدِ وَبَعْدَهَا حَدَّثَنَا

It confirms that listening to the sermon is not obligatory. It is, however, preferable to leave the prayer ground only after one has listened to the sermon, as the Companions used to do.
