wahala! we don enter one chance.

Who cares if it pains the whole body?

If you don't care then what is your beef?

Haven't read the article but if the implication is the straightforward suggestion that we shouldn't celebrate the festival because others don't or that we're making "Muslin Muslim" more than even the Muslim world, by celebrating the festival, then i don't support the implication. I think that one of the things to celebrate about being Nigerian is our ability to dare to think for ourselves. In other words, we should celebrate the festival if it pleases us and not worry about others not celebrating it. Moon-sighting or not.

If Premium Times wants to report Islam, it should report it properly. You do not turn a matter of Fiqh.into a story. What is the basis for starting and ending Ramadan?

Like Dr. Wali has said, the Sultan is bound to announce once there are sufficient credible report of moonsighting which is what he has done and is in line with traditions of Prophet Muhammad (SAW).

It is not something that anyboy will claim exclusive control of. The moonsighting committee report to the Sultan not the other way round and not to the exclusion of his decision-making.

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

Saudana made the dichotomy when he visited Ibadan and refused to worship inside the mosque preferring to stay outside to worship. When asked why he referred to yoruba Muslims as Asho ebi Muslims. By the way he was right. That is why they don't throw bombs. They will worship behind your imam when you start bombing. Meanwhile that yoruba imam in Abuja is political whitewash. I see you are not fooled.

anago9010: all those dolts opening there mouth to spew trash should save is there balderdash. sultan is the head of Muslims in Nigeria is opinion is finally. anyone not please should go and hug transform including the deranged habibulah al ilori.

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

You are partially correct. The Sultan's announcement is correct under the rules of Islam. It is not a matter of newspaper sensationalism but clearly recorded traditions of Prophet Muhammad (SAW).

.

People get a lashing for not fasting that's why and besides your copy-cat pseudo religious cultural import from Arabia is glaring off mark given that your Arab masters are still fasting.

oya go and bomb Premium Times

The world knows that the fitr is on monday, Sanusi declear it today to prove he don't take Action from FG, if he thinks he can rub head with the FG, he would have declear the holiday on Wednesday, so we see who rules the Town.

End time things

Cybermugu1: Confused religion!

my thought exactly , Useless Boko Haram can't even respect their Sallah , they're foolishly throwing bomb everywhere as if they're playing video game!!!

rozayx5:
Why bombs are always discovered and not exploding near mosques beats me

Because their prayers r genuine

fijiano202: shaki,roundabout,fuku,liver,tongue,ear,laps all na meat

Dnt use dat to pass ur verdict. The LRA(Lord Resistance Army) is a christian base terrorist group. There's always a danger of believing a single story. Lets stop stereotyping.

this is serious, HRH sultan probably saw a spaceship!

Na tomorrow we dey celebrate our own eid for Osun state

[quote author=Tinubu][/quote] not seen a name

The muslims will blame it on jona and the BH boys will make an attempt on d sultans life watch out

superior1: The religion of astrology

LOL. What do you think the Gregorian Calendar is based on?

lakad4u: why are some people like showing there leve of ignorant?can anybody tell you your own religion is confused?this issue of religion is something that has been existing even before the existence of your great gran fathers,why can't you just read and close the page if you know you have nothing special ot intelligent to say....anyway,am a christain but I hate it when people say rubbish to another religion because we serve the same God..

point of correction, we don't serve the same GOD but I agree with the rest of your post

WombRaiders: So GEJ got it right by giving them Monday and Tuesday as their public holiday

Sultan should go and learn his religion under GEJ

cld he had declared Sunday as a public holiday?

Adetayo100: Na tomorrow we dey celebrate our own eid for Osun state

Osunnites always at variance.

How is the state of osun under odenni these days by the way?

Faun: Nigeria is also the only country in the world with a "South-South".
What does this tell you? Nigerians are m0rons as far as Geography is concerned.

hillarius dude on point

KingMEXX: Interesting! hmmm...

Hopefully, the Sultan "The moon sighting Committee" can explain better ...The celebration might as well be shifted to Wednesday, am so enjoying the pub holidays
