Eidul Fitr to be celebrated in KP on Tuesday, provincial govt announces

[Pakhtoon yum]

It was seen earlier as usual . Mullah have the world's most sharp eyes I guess.
Its always like that kyun k mullah k haan sochna or samjhna karaahat aamez ha , thus the result.

Must be cause they're sugar high all the time. With the amount of halwa they eat, I would be able to see into the future too.

Did the people of kpk sighted second shawal moon today?

No it has nothing to do with Pashtun nationalism and more to do with Deobandi vs Barelvi sectarianism. This is coming from a Pashtun who has argued at length with his own kith and kin in KP over the issue.

How come moon sighting became deobandi-brelvi issue.--- Aren't there deobandis in Punajb/sindh + ruet hilal committee also has deobandi members.

It became one because Mufti Muneeb is Barelvi. Or so i heard. Rest assured the issue is one of sectarianism then any legitimate concern.

No it's not sectarian, how could it be when there are scholars from all sects in ruet hilal committee.---- the issue is political, Molvi popalzai is stronger than the state specially kpk govt.---- kpk govt said they accepted popalzai's moon sighting for the sake of unity.--- more than half of kpk population celebrating Eid today and they talk about unity.

Believe me i have had a lot of discussions on this. I have had the answer many times. Mufti Muneeb is barelvi. That was what i arrived at . Leave the KP government stance as well. They said they will observe the extra fast after eid. Go figure.

Than we can say that only deobandis of some parts of kpk have problems with federal ruet hilal committee, rest of deobandis from all parts of Pakistan (including kpk) have no issues. --- This only shows how weak our rulers are.

I have wished Eid Mubarak to friends as far as Kalam , Buner, they all celebrating Eid today. --- if it's a deobandi-brelvi issue, why these deobandi friends celebrating Eid today?

Peshawar and surrounding areas is a special case where two things happens:
a) popalzai gets sighted
b) moon always gets sighted one day earlier.

The friend from Kalam was saying, " in logon ka qiyamat bhi ek din pehlay Aey gaa"

Yeah i agree. Even Swat and areas nearby celebrated eid TODAY. Go figure. I am also if the view that this is utter failure of the government. No argument there. My reply was to another user who said it is a Pushtoon nationalist issue. I dont think it is.

Also as someone already posted earlier, this is an issue since time immemorial. Someone posted a clipping from 1958 showing the same controversy. Allah in ko hidayat day aur hamaray mulk main ik Ramzan aur ik Eid daikhna hamain naseeb karay.

What Pakistani Ruet Hilal committe used to do was at first look at the Moon sighting map and see the visibility change. They knew which day Eid will be just like Fawad calendar says so. But still they used to double check to confirm with physical eye sighting. Most Pakistanis misunderstood this due to media propaganda.

We should check all Eid and Ramadan dates announcement by Ruet Hilal committed. They will all be accurate according to Fawad Calendar.

You are absolutely right on Moon sighting Ruet Hilal committee exactly doing that,, …… Media propaganda and foreigner sectarian funding making things harder in Pakistan......
