Has anybody noticed that tomorrow is Friday the 13th? I'm not superstitious, and I don't know if Muslims in general know that this date has an 'unlucky' connotation, but it's worth noting, anyway.

To be honest, I had not noticed that tomorrow is FRIDAY THE 13TH. Very tackey that you would remind me at this time. But I do know that it is the next day of the rest of my life. I intend to live it, and they days that follow.

While being prepared to make sure that me and mine survive for more days and years to come.

Interesting that you should bring that up. Islamists view this as a conflict between Christianity and Islam. The 'unlucky' connotations of Friday the 13th originated in the early 14th century when the French King rounded up the Knights Templars (traditional crusader foes of the Muslims) for 'questioning'. KT's were arrested on Friday October 13, 1307. I'm guessing they might know that Friday the 13th is considered 'unlucky' by Christians.
