Eid Mubarak!
same to you Mahmoud…what did happen this year?
Re: Eid Mubarak!
2 billion Muslims had to change their plans for Eid which was supposed to by on Friday because 2 dickheads in village of Ayn Al-Sayh (عينالسيØÂÂ) insisted in front of their local “moon sighting committee” that they saw the moon of Thulhijjah one day earlier than everybody else, even though astronomically it was impossible. There was no moon there. Yet, as they are “upstanding Muslims” I guess, Saudi changed Arafah to one day earlier (today) rather than it being on Thursday, and then Eid being Thursday rather than Friday. Saudi being the country who have the privilege to have the Ka’aba, the rest of the Muslim world HAS to follow their lead, hence, 2 billion or more Muslims now have had their Eid dictated by a couple of people.
We should ditch this whole “moon sighting committee” rubbish and just stick to science for goodness’ sake. The irony of course is that Muslims were among the first pioneers of astronomy and have grown and perfected that science. Now we discard all of that achievement and more because someone somewhere insists on interpreting the Quran to fall with culture and traditions rather than move it forward to accept scientific evidence.
Eid Mubarak to you and yours as well!

Hajj cleric warns Muslim youth
MOUNT ARAFAT, Saudi Arabia (AP) — Raising their hands to the sky, about 2 million Muslim pilgrims prayed for salvation Wednesday at Mount Arafat, where Saudi Arabia’s top cleric said the greatest test for the nation of Islam comes from its sons who are “lured by the devil,” a reference to violent Muslim militants.
Many pilgrims’ eyes welled with tears as they prayed on the most critical day of the hajj, the annual pilgrimage the faithful believe will wipe away their sins.
While speaking at a mosque on the plain of Mount Arafat, Sheik Abdul-Aziz al-Sheik, the kingdom’s grand mufti, referred to the violent campaign waged by Muslim militants affiliated with the al Qaeda terror network against targets in the kingdom, attacks Saudi authorities have been battling the past two years.
Al-Sheik said the greatest test for the Muslim nation is its own sons gone astray, and he warned them not to be used by enemies of the nation to weaken it.
“The greatest affliction to strike the nation of Islam came from some of its own sons, who were lured by the devil,” he said. “They have called the nation infidel, they have shed protected blood and they have spread vice on earth, with explosions and destruction and killing of innocents.”
He pointedly asked of Muslim youth: “How would you meet God? With innocent blood you shed or helped shed?”
Al-Sheik also said that campaigns were being waged against the people of Islam — “military campaigns, thought campaigns, economic campaigns, and media campaigns.
“They are all against this religion. The nation was described as a terrorist nation, that we are terrorists and backward,” he said. “Conferences have been held and conspiracies have been woven … all unjustly and unfairly.”
Al-Sheik urged worshippers to abide the words of God and his prophet and not be “fooled by a civilization known for its weak structure and bad foundation.”
Pilgrims held hands out for each other to climb the gentle yet rugged hill, while many already atop pushed and shoved to hug a pillar, standing where Islam’s 7th century prophet Muhammad gave his last sermon.
“Oh God, have mercy on us. Oh God, forgive our sins,” Syrian pilgrim Abdul Razzah Hamadah said in prayer with tears in his eyes.
Muhammad delivered his last sermon at Mount Arafat, 12 miles southwest of Mecca, on March A.D. 632, three months before he died.
“God has brought us here and he will take care of our safety,” said Hamadah, who accompanied his mother, when asked about security and safety concerns during the pilgrimage. In recent decades, the hajj has been marred by stampedes.
Helicopters hovered above the plain, dotted by pilgrims all the way to the peak of Mount Arafat. Men and women, otherwise not allowed to mix in the conservative kingdom, rubbed shoulders and stretched helping hands to each other as they climbed the uneven slope.
Some pilgrims paused on top of Mount Arafat to photograph the occasion.
There, men in seamless white robes and women, covered from head to foot except for their hands and faces, held prayer booklets and recited the Koran.
Pilgrims streamed into the area atop buses and cars crawling along bumper-to-bumper from the sprawling tent city of Mina.

Eid Mubarak!
Eid Mubarak to Mahmood, the Al-Yousif family, and all M.tv readers
I’m supposed to be on a flight to Pakistan right now but I didn’t get a seat thanks to the confusion created by those two chaps in the rub3 al-khali who sighted the moon while tripping on some desert shrooms I bet. Well Eid in Bahrain isn’t all that bad (especially since there won’t be animal blood flowing in the streets here…ugghh).
3eedkum mubarak w3asakum min 3awad!
Re: Blogger’s meetup in Hajj?
Actually I wondering if there are any bloggers who have been moblogging their Hajj experience…I tried googling but didn’t come up with anything. Yes I know that pilgrims should focus all of their attention on the Hajj itself, but a photo and couple sentences each day shouldn’t take up too much time…. maybe something for bloggers to consider for next year?
Ha! Fooled you!
After getting everybody up at the crack of dawn this morning, showered, changed in Eid finery, breakfasted and about ready to walk out of the door I thought… hang on a minute, I’ve been through so many of these that I better check.
I did.
For us the Shi’a (aparently everywhere) it’s NOT Eid today!
It’s tomorrow, as originally scheduled.
So if you’re celebrating Eid today, from the heart: Eid Mubarak.
If you’re celebrating Edit tomorrow, from the heart: Eid Mubarak.
Me? I’m celebrating BOTH days!!
Eid Mubarak!
Eid Mubarak Mahmood, to you and your family and all your readers!
I was thinking Eid would be on Thursday, here in the U.S. I get more confused every Eid!
Eid Mubarak!
