Multiple Eids in Pakistan

By Sobia Raja • Aug 19th, 2012 • Category: Lead Story • 5 Comments

We always talk about revolution in country but never think how?? Just imagine for a moment a nation that celebrates 3 Eid in a country, how they can be united on a single thing. With Group of people in nation makes it really difficult to achieve a single directed aim. At least we should celebrate Eid occasion together on same day to proof that we are a nation, but don’t know when and how these issues will be cleared.

Little things always counts for big deals. But we as a nation are unable to understand these little things; we are busy in showing our superiority on others. On every Eid-Ul-Fittar we have to face same things, I agree that moon spotted at some places and not on all the places. That’s why they said they are celebrating it. But there is thing that is irritating me, if in Peshawar moon was sighted for Ramzan ul. Mubark then why not other cities followed and why Ruet-e-Hilal never announced it, Peshawar, Quetta are the cities of Pakistan if Zonal committee confirms moon sightedness then why not central Ruite- Hilal accepts it?? Today in Peshawar they took decision to celebrate Eid tomorrow because zonal committee received testimonies from the province. Really very very confusing, , In Pakistan N. Waziristan celebrated Eid on 18 Aug, K.P.K will celebrate on 19 Aug and rest of Pakistan will celebrate it on 20 Aug. is it good?? Is it shows the rest of world that look we are a nation that never agree on one point. We happily do this.

If these things will not be solved then these will finally leads us towards the worst. We don’t need to show the priorities, but it’s all about accepting and giving importance to others. Just little humbleness in attitudes is required, Muftee Mueeb ur Rehman should consider the testimonies from the whole country not only from Punjab and other provinces, he should give importance to K.P.K we shouldn’t separate them because we all are same, no Punjabi, Pathan, Balochi and Sindhi but only Pakistani. We should understand this otherwise we are at worst and it will take no time to collapse.

  1. Now this is awkward!I am from KPK.i agree with everything that was said in the message above.Actually,i’m one of the guys who was going to fast today.ON EID DAY!i woke up for sehri and ate and everything.but then at about 8am,i got very thirsty.I kept hearing the sounds from different mosques where there were eid prayers.it felt like everyone was celebrating eid but me!so i went to the kitchen,and helped myself with a big bottle of coke!Then i ate a samosa and then i had a Mars!Then i made myself some nice tea and now i’m watching the under-19 cricket world cup.Everyone’s celebrating eid here people!you know before this,its like 50-50 here.half of the people celebbrate eid and the other half fasts.not this time though.
    Now my point of view.I was originally gonna fast as a rebel against the KPK Govt,rather than to fast as a muslim who wanted to fast.I thought that may be its time that atleast some people should fast so that a rule is followed that people who think that its wrong what the KPK Govt does,can go against them as locally as they may.BUT WELL,i’m a human,a pakistani and a muslim.And these three things made sure that all my will-power stayed only until 8am!WE are never ever going to be a nation,as Mr.Hassan Nisar says.i agree with him when he says that we are just a haphazard group of insects who might hit each other,eat each other,crawl on each other but can NEVER agree at a thing.
    So people,stop being all dramatic about the fact that we’re not a nation and we should change.Its not going to happen in our life time atleast.The best method to live in this country is by following ‘Go with the flow’ technique and making use of any and every opportunity that we get to be as good as we can be.To ourselves,to our parents,to our neighbors,to our country and to everyone else that we come into contact with.Help others whenever possible,how so ever possible.thats it,thats all we can do.forget being a nation because thats not happening anytime soon.Anyways,Eid mubarek guys.celebration time!

  2. I dont knwo how pople-zai could declare Eid or How only one niche of our country could do that. Is it just a ” ZIDD” or some thing in real ??

    Our Pakhtoon brothers never answered this in a sold way! Even our main stream media makes fun of this but never tried to nip the root cause.

    EID MUBARAK !

  3. Three eids
    Target killing of shias
    migration of Hindus toward our rival
    This simply shows our division on very minor issues and predicting that coming days would bring more disastrous form of religious conflicts on which basis Pakistan was made.
    By the way RAW is quite relieved after Zia regime as ISI fed mullahs are taken over its job goals.

    O Batool - Hamara BEHAN - Roza - Aftar Kay Badd - Hum NASWAR - Kahay Gee- Phir Hamara DIMAGH Ko Hawa Lagay Gee - Phir Hum Tum Ko Iska Jawab Daiy Gee.

  5. Reply to BATOOL.
    About Popal zai,we don’t really know!thats the answer and thats the best that you’re gonna get from anyone.The real thing that i’ve found out is,that The central government doesn’t believe the ’shahaadats’ of people from KPK and Baluchistan!It is confirmed and i was so shocked to find that out!If there are so many ’shahaadats’ from such big provinces,they should be considered atleast.
    People might say that its not true,but people i’m from KPK and i’ve confirmed this.I was actually expecting that there won’t be anything to it other than just sheer politics.but its not just that.its a mixture of politics with unfair behavior.damn this stupid nation,damn this!I feel ashamed of being a pakistani.
