Dear Mufti Saheb, can you tell me what is the islamic point of view on working on Eid Day.I am a self employed person. Jazakallah Khair

In principle, it is not prohibited to work on the day of Eid. However, the sacredness of the day of Eid should be displayed. Since you are self employed , we advise you to celebrate the day of Eid.
