Idul Adha 2008 / 1429

Most Muslims in Indonesia will hold Idul Adha prayer on Monday 8 December 2008 AD/ 10 Dzulhijjah 1429 AH (Hijriyah). Some, however, celebrate Idul Adha (Eid ul Adha, Eid al Adha) one day earlier like those Muslims in West Sumatra:

At least 3,000 Jamaah Thariqat Naqsabandiyah members in West Sumatra celebrated Idul Adha on Saturday, two days earlier than the day decided by government in consultation with most Muslim groups.

“In our calculating, at most there are 30 days in a month. Meanwhile, there are other groups that calculate one month up to 31 days. So, every year we celebrate Idul Adha earlier than other groups,” said Munir, 70, the caretaker of Surau Baru mosque.

He added that the group also started the fasting month and celebrated Idul Fitri two days earlier every year.

Whenever you celebrate it, today or tomorrow, I wish you a happy Idul Adha. Make it a momentum towards a better life in its broadest meaning of the term.
