The sultan is in order. He got reports of sighting of the new moon from several towns and he is under obligation to announce it. Ilori is in error by needlessly discrediting the many muslims who reported sighting the moon . If the moon is sighted in Nigeria and nowhere else we are bound to end the ramadan in Nigeria. Right from the time of the sahaba moon-sighting is never centralized. Ilory is misled to base the sighting of the moon on science. Science sometimes produce wrong results as can be seen in weather forecasts.

It is not like a lot of these people believe in the science, they will pick anything that seems to justify their position. If the science does not support their desires next year, they will abandon it with ease.

The Sultan has followed the sunnah, those who oppose him on this issue are not. Or did the Prophet (SAW) use computers to determine the start and end of Ramadan?

Lol. So many hungry muslims. I guess some of them are tired already.

Misinformation, we are all fasting for 29 days even those that broke today. We started ahead of the rest of the world in Nigeria.

Its because the leaders and people r too Religious. There is nothing to be happy about with all this killings spreading.. This holiday. Should be used as a time to reflect on what is really going in The country and how it can be solved and not Unnecessary Jaye.. But all the same..wish all muslim brothers best of holidays

Boko Haram be like...
New moon uploading... 54% progress...

abdulwastecx:

foolishness of the highest order.... is your head but not my head. we in the 21st century mate, u don't need to sight the moon with ur nicked eye again on some desert in the North, you can do that with the use of equipment, some tradition of stone age need to change we are no longer in the 6th century

ignorance at the highest level go soak yourself in understanding your religion before spewing shyte. I know irritants like you are not learned at all. little wonder you call the prophet 6th century sunna an outdated process. you need life long dose of neurovites and brain vitamins.

ds bigot is still alive...since seun sacked u from mod levels, hw v u been eating niggur

maclatunji:

Hunger na bas.tard.

Cybermugu1: Confused religion!

u are even confusing me with ur silly comment

Sixix:

I agree there shouldn't be any discrimination but you cant pretend to ignore something that is glaring. Take a trip to Bodija market and see how prayers are conducted.

Like i said earlier he isn't the leader if he were,. he would have taken account of the sensitivity of the subject at hand and have acted as such. Isn't there a national committee for that? Were they informed or was the proclamation a unanimous decision? You have no idea what this issue is all about and the damage it has caused, There had been efforts by the SW Muslim leaders to address the issue of false moon sightings with the Northern leaders and this is what we get in return.

The day Northern leaders begin to act as Muslim leaders then i will reconsider my stance on them, till then

bodija I pray in agodi gates when I'm in Ibadan and our mallam neighbours pray the back of the Yoruba imam, fake moon sighting you mist be kidding!!!!! the sky is so clear in the north compared to the skies down south. when you on board an aircraft you can verify that by looking through the windows when in the south same for north and tell us findings, all I see in this issues are disgruntled Yoruba scholar especially that olodo called Habib al ilori, I can't forget his ignoramus lectures on LTV during last three years ramadhan, where he dedicated a whole month throwing jibes at the al sunnah community.

There was an eclipse of the sun that made the Moonsighting Committee not to have sighted the moon in dat saturday night, so it's not their fault.

Naija get mouth be dat naw.... barka da sallah... #islamtilldeath#

Was it Sanusi that announced the end of the fasting?

We are still searching for our girls, now, we are searching for moon again.......which way Naija? #moonsightingcommittee

Ok..

Too wrongly religious country, no wonder nothing will ever work correctly in Nigeria

This is story is not true,Malaysia and Turkey celebrated theirs today,even if it were to be true it's allowed Nigerian muslims are not obliged to take instruction from any country in other to follow the islamic injunction regarding fasting for 29 days and sighting of moon.

Fake moon

Cybermugu1: Confused religion!

Do we have to make mockery of a Religion because of the day they decide to celebrate Sallah.

We should learn to tolerate one another.

That feeling u perceive from most Christians on nl, uncertain about their faith, they jump at any opportunity to disparage muslims and Islam . It must be hard, .
How does celebrating an event that does not involve u in anyway become such a huge deal to u. This hatred u are sharing because of Islam darisgoduooh

The. Op is simply continuing gej strategy of promoting hatred amongst various religion in Nigeria.

Gej. The man in shadows in d pick below

Five flogged in Iran for Ramadan violations

TEHRAN: Five people were publicly flogged in Iran as punishment for eating in public in violation of the rules of the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan, state media reported.

The offenders ignored warnings from police and "ate intentionally" in the western city of Kermanshah, the province's chief justice Ali Mozafari said, quoted by the official IRNA news agency.

They were flogged for their actions, he added.

Iranian authorities issue warnings every year to respect Ramadan by not eating or drinking in public. However, the fast is often ignored, especially in hot weather with people drinking water in the street.

[size=18pt]All the Muslims in Nigeria deserve to be flogged![/size]

No,Malaysia and Turkey also celebrate today,however all the criteria required before celebration were fulfilled such as 29 days of fast after sighting moon before starting and sighting of moon before announcing of end of Ramadan,which was sighted in many locations in Nigeria,hence Nigeria is good to go and perfect to have celebrate today.
