Question

Some people say that nikah should not be performed in between the months of the two eids, i.e. the months between eid ul fiter and eid ul adha. Is there any basis for this in shariah?

Answer

This has no basis in shariah. It is permissible to perform nikaah between the two eids.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
