540. There is a similar narration from Umm Atiyyah with another chain. (Ṣaḥīḥ)
[He said:] There are narrations on this topic from Ibn 'Abbās and Jābir.
Abū 'Eisā said: The Ḥadīth of Umm 'Atiyyah is a Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ Ḥadīth.
Some of the people of knowledge followed this Ḥadīth, permitting the women to go out to the two 'Eid, However, some of them disliked it.
It has been reported that [ʿAbdullāh] bin Al-Mubārak said: "Today it is disliked for the women to go out for the two 'Eid. If a woman insists on going out, then her husband should permit her to go out in her modest clothing without any adornments, but if she refuses to go out like that, then her husband is to prevent her from leaving."
It has been reported that 'Aishah [may Allāh be pleased with her] said: "If Allāh's Messenger ﷺ saw what has happened to the women, then he would prevent them from going to the Masjid just as the women of the children of Isrā'īl were prevented."
It has been reported that Sufyān Ath-Thawrī disliked the women of today to go out for the 'Eid.

Commentary
This Hadīth proves that the people should go out to an open field for Eid prayer, this is the opinion of Imām Abū Ḥanīfah, Mālik and Aḥmad. According to Imām Shafī'ī it is better to pray in a mosque if the mosque is big enough to accommodate all the people. But Imām Ibn Qudāmah said, the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ never offered Eid prayer in the mosque, without an excuse.
