Yes — in many scholarly views, Eid prayer can be prayed at home, especially when going to the mosque is not possible or when a person follows a school that permits it. The exact ruling and method can vary by madhhab, so the answer is not identical in every tradition.

How it is done

For the Shafi‘i view, Eid prayer at home may be prayed individually or in congregation as 2 rak‘ahs with extra takbirs, and a brief summary of the method is: 7 extra takbirs in the first rak‘ah and 5 in the second before al- Fatihah. The Malaysian mufti’s guidance also describes home Eid prayer as 2 rak‘ahs, without adhan or iqamah, and with the khutbah after the prayer if it is performed in congregation.

Important notes

Some scholars treat Eid prayer as a communal Sunnah and allow flexibility at home, while others discuss different details on whether it is prayed individually or in congregation. If you are following a specific school, it is best to follow that school’s method for the takbirs and the khutbah.

Simple practical answer

If you are unable to attend the mosque, praying Eid at home is a recognized option in several reputable fiqh discussions, so your prayer can still be valid when done according to the method of your school.
