Sunday June 25 equivalent of Shawwal 1 is Sallah, Sultan of Sokoto and President-General Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs (NSCIA), Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar III, has said.

Declaring the new moon Saturday night at his Palace in Sokoto, Alhaji Abubakar said the new moon was sighted in parts of the country including Borno, Yobe and Adamawa.

He therefore asked Muslims all over Nigeria to cease to fast as it is not permitted to fast on Sallah day.

The Sultan congratulated the Muslims for successful completion of the monthlong fasting period and urged them to keep alive the lessons if Ramadan even after fasting is over.

Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, and other Arab countries announced on Saturday that Sunday will be the first day of Eid al-Fitr 1438.

Oman, however, has not sighted the moon, and thus declared Monday June 26 as the first day of Eid al-Fitr.

According to Bangladesh, Pakistan, India will be sighting the moon on Sunday. These countries started Ramadan on May 28 and so Sunday will be the 29th of Ramadan for them.

so let the party begin.
Happy sallah to faithful Muslims.

Good a thing the Sultan did not extend this year's holidays by one day like last year.

Happy Eid Fitri.

This is evidence that there are several nations in this Ni.gger Area. What does this have to do with those in Enugu or Yenegoa

E no concern me

When will they declare an end to terrorism?

Islam is a subjugating political religion.
That is why a Dauda in Ibadan will show and pay more allegiance and obeisance to the Sokoto caliphate and its Sultan than he does to his Olubadan and his Yoruba heritage.
Yet this sultan is neither mohammad nor a prophet - just a traditional ruler in faraway Sokoto.

Barka da sallah to all my brothers.

May Allah accept all our ibadah and forgive our shortcomings.
