Why do we wear kurta on Eid?

There is a tradition of wearing kurta-pyjama in the Indian subcontinent. According to Islamic teachings, applying perfume, wearing clean clothes and dressing up well on the day of Eid is considered 'Sunnah' (tradition of Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam). Most Muslim men wear kurta-pyjama during Eid prayers. This is the reason why different designs and varieties of this traditional dress are available in the markets.

Sale of readymade kurtas increased

Generally people like to buy cloth and get kurta-pyjama stitched according to their size, but due to high demand most tailors have stopped taking new orders. Therefore people are now also buying readymade kurta-pyjamas.
