Let me start with a very simple question, What is Eid-Ul-Fitr ? We all know what it is, Right ? Isn't it a Joyous Celebration related to one's religion and faith, Muslims to be precise. In my opinion Faith and Religion is a very personal matter of Person and must not be questioned in any condition.
Our country is like an oil tank, you just have to lit a fire, then Just stay back and watch what happens. This is our biggest negative as a Nation and our enemies exploit it by promoting Sectarianism on such sacred occassions. If one part or lets say a Group of our society wants to celebrate their Religious Happiness one day earlier than the state then we must not have any problem with this. I mean why should we care? They're celebrating it B'coz they have interpreted their religion this way. If they want to skip a fast or two then we must not make it a National issue. This is purely Religious matter and everyone is responsible for his/her deeds and will be held responsible for them on the day of Judgment. The only thing we should do is create awareness and spread the knowledge and shall pray for them. Taking discussions to the next serious level and Heating things up will be of no use. We as a Nation are already divided in too many groups. Divisions on the basis of Colour, Sect, Language, Region, Province, Caste, Creed and thousands many. Aren't we Muslims and Pakistani first and we have freedom of speech and actions.
My Request to a sane would be, Just avoid creating unnecessary Issues. There is no reason to fight a battle with them on this issue.
Stay Blessed everyone and please accept my Eid Greetings whenever you decide to Celebrate..:)

Totally agree with you there.
ReplyDeleteBut Islam was the one of the few things that united everyone here in this country. Now we do not even have consensus on a religious festival. Sad.
