Since the holiday is upon us, happy Eid everyone! Or as we with Turkish ties say, Happy Kurban Byrum!

No matter what your beliefs or lack thereof, just want to say Allah be with you all. :D

...and happy newyears!

Is it that time of the unfollowable lunar calendar again? My how the time flies.

This means that my favourite indian restaurant will be closed for a few days next week. :mad:

Two I believe. One now, and one to celebrate the breaking of the fast after Ramadan.

A secular Muslim is an oxymoron, as is a secular Muslim holiday.

maybe today. but who know what will happen later. back in the middle ages, when christianity was an equally violent religion, no-one ever thought that christian holidays would become secular.

Well Christmas, a christian holiday, has been mostly secularised. There's no reason to believ the same won't happen to Islam.
