When is Eid ?

Salam everyone;

Does anyone know when Eid is expected in the US ?

Is it Thursday ?

W'salaam,

I was reading the Islamic Society of North America website and the message they had was that it will be on Friday, but just in case i think it would be best to check that site later on today.

AH

Gandalf, I don't remember seeing a post from you. "When is First Roza"?.

I will celebrate Eid on Friday. :)

That way I get to miss the most boring lecturers boring lecture.

Most groups in US go by the scientific moon sighting system, according to which the Eid falls on Dec. 6th (Friday) ... but it's also in the fine prints that one should get out in the evening and look for moon the night of 29th.

*Shawaal &Ead UlFitr announced *

It was announced tonight in Mekkah Mukarramah that the crescent moon of the month of Shawaal was officialy sighted.

Based on this, tomorrow, Thursday Dec 5, 2002 is Ead UlFitr.

We ask Allaah almighty to accept from all Muslims their Fasting and Qiyaam prayers.

'Eid Mubarak to everyone ... taqabal Allaahu minna wa minkum.

I was present with a colleague of mine when he received a phone call from Dubai earlier today announcing that 'Eid will be tomorrow (Thursday), insha'Allah. 'Eid Mubarak to everyone, whichever day you celebrate it.
