To my Muslim friends here,

I wish you and your families a joyous Eid celebration.  May God's blessings and peace be on each of you.

Question -- I note that most Muslims are celebrating Eid today.  Others are not.  What's that about?  Thanks!  And have a wonderful holiday.

Eid out here isn't for five and a half hours (reason why is complicated).

But thanks anyway. Smiley

When I saw the thread title, that's how I read it too.  I assumed sick joke on the inside and I love sick jokes.

Enjoy your feast various Muslim peoples on the board.  Try and avoid the Cheesy Pulled Pork though, no matter how good it sounds.

The reason is based on the Islamic calendar and moon sightings and the like.

Never celebrated Eid before.

I guess I need a First-Eid kit.

It's just a three-day (sometimes longer) party.
