Special Ziarat and A'amal for Ghadir, the Greater Eid

It has been narrated that when Imam al-Sadiq (a) was asked whether Muslims have a feast day other than Eid-ul Fitr, Eid-ul Adha and Fridays, he answered, “Yes, they have. There is still the holiest feast day, which falls on the day when the Messenger of Allah (a) appointed Amir al-Mumineen -Imam Ali- (a) (as his successor and the coming leader of the Muslim community). On that day, the Holy Prophet (s) declared, ‘Whoever has regarded me as his master must now regard Ali as his master.”
When he was asked about the deeds that should be done on that day, Imam al- Sadiq (a) instructed, “(The best acts on this day are) observance of fasting, acts of worship, mention of the Household of the Holy Prophet, and invocation of blessings upon them. The Holy Messenger of Allah (s) instructed Imam Ali (a) to betake that day as feast. Similarly, the Prophets (a) used to instruct their successors to betake the eighteenth of Zil-Hijjah as feast day.”
Imam Ali Ibn Musa Ar-Reza (a.s.) said: "It is highly rewarding to be in Najaf Iraq today for performing the Ziarat of Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (a). Give Alms today as much as you can, in the name of Allah, to the less fortunate, because, the "day of Ghadir" is particularly specified for helping deserving people."
We can give expression to our joy and happiness in a suitable manner keeping in view the life style, the tenets of Islam. It is highly desirable to make the believers (Momineen) happy. To do favors to relatives, to give gifts, and invite friends and relatives to eat meals together, forgive mistakes etc.
