For your amusement.
Don’t eat the yellow snow.
When ramadan occurs in the winter I bet they don’t complain about lack of daylight. No daylight no fast!
Just go somewhere else.
They could declare it to be the time the second tower fell.
Something I’ve wondered about is how do US schools that in recent years bend over backwards to accommodate Muslim holidays handle the summer? Common sense would dictate that they’re just ASOL but that doesn’t rule anymore. Every year their holidays are two weeks earlier than the previous year on our calendar meaning that the the holidays will eventually hit the school year again. But will they try to get Muslim holiday time during the school year anyway in the interest of “fairness?”
Ramadan and Hadj don’t start on the same days throughout the Muslim world or even in the rest of the Middle East. After six years in Saudi I just assumed that all Muslim countries were on the same holiday schedule driven by when they officially begin in Mecca. Found out later that I was wrong.
Nah, just check out the stories of the contortions that they went into when being on the SST...
Dumb asses................
Devout devotees!!!
Yeah - the Shia Ayatollahs make it a point to start different than the Sunnis - and everything is based on the Moon - which is directly linked back to the old Egyptian Moon god named Allah...trying to see who’s in charge of the massive cult...like everything - they can’t agree on nothing!

Archaeologists have uncovered temples to the Moon-god throughout the Middle East. From the mountains of Turkey to the banks of the Nile, the most wide-spread religion of the ancient world was the worship of the Moon-god. In the first literate civilization, the Sumerians have left us thousands of clay tablets in which they described their religious beliefs. As demonstrated by Sjoberg and Hall, the ancient Sumerians worshipped a Moon-god who was called many different names. The most popular names were Nanna, Suen and Asimbabbar. His symbol was the crescent moon. Given the amount of artifacts concerning the worship of this Moon-god, it is clear that this was the dominant religion in Sumeria. The cult of the Moon-god was the most popular religion throughout ancient Mesopotamia.
Hey! I think they should be strict! At their latitude, the sun comes up around mid-February, when they should start fasting. Then it sets mid-October, when they can end their fast. Problem solved! Allah would be pleased!
why can;t they go to where they can do this instead of living in places and looking for excuses to do what they follow?
Like I give a smelly Obama.
Then they wouldn’t be able spread to far away places like Sweden.
