Pakistan likely to see two Eids...again
PESHAWAR: The controversy of two eids is likely to continue this year as well as with most parts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa set to celebrate Eid a day ahead of the rest of the country.
The traditional moon-sighting committee of Masjid Qasim Khan in Pesahwar will be holding a committee today under Mufti Shahab-ud-Din Popalzai.
The committe had earlier sighted moon a day earlier as well to mark the start of the holy month of Ramzan.
If the committee sights the moon this evening, most parts of the province will be observing eid on Tuesday.
The conflict is many years old as the official moon-sighting committe does not recognise the authority of the Qasim Khan Mosque.
The central moon-sighting committee under Mufti Muneeb is likely to hold a meeting tomorrow.
The Met office has predicted moon could be sighted on Tuesday.
Ironically, this year, Eid ul Fitr is expected to be observed on the same day all over the world. According to Saudi astrologists there is no chance of a moon sighting in Saudi Arabia on the evening of Monday 29 August and hence Ramazan will be 30 days long, ending on August 30.
A look from you is as blinding as the sun As stunning as your eyes I lose myself in A look from you is as pure as the clear blue sky When I'm with you Every minute I'm not around you I feel like I left something behind. Every time I'm not looking at you I feel like I am blind ~
