Shawwal Moon sighting Spot Fixed ?

Shawwal moon’s always been a spot of controversy. After a short while, the proceedings of the Central Roeet-e-Halal Committee to sight Eid moon will began. I am 100% sure that the moon will NOT be sighted ;)

Reasons?

1) Spot Fixing =P

2) Natural

Well, it is said that the Fridays Eid is unlucky for the rulers. Many scholars rejected this idea and declared the Fridays Eids to be the pious ones. However we know that in the history of Pakistani governments, particularly in Ayub Khan’s regime, rulers have been actually postponing the Eid with the intention that it should not fall on Fridays because of a superstitious belief that the Eids on Fridays are unlucky for rulers.

And ofcourse I am not suggesting the confirmation of moon sighting spot fixing. Obviously chances are there that the moon is actually not sighted. I just wish that we have a united Eid this time.

And once again, Eid ul Fitr and Shawal moon was made controversial by few maulavies in Lahore, Hyderabad, Gujranwala and various other cities, claiming moon was not sighted and Eid was on October 2. They refused to held Eid prayer on Wednesday. I believe this is such a tragedy that these so called Mullas who claim to be the Scholars and “Thaikay daar” of the religion.

I suppose they are doing it just to get some fame or importance, or whatever. But why they are failed to realize that it wasn’t a unilateral decision of Mufti Munib ur Rahman. It was rather based on more then 15 evidences collected from various parts of Pakhtunkhwa and FATA.

Anyway, May God give us all the guidance.

And Eid Mubarak to all of You :)
