Ramadan Preperations:

As you all know the Holy Month Of Ramadan is right around the corner and this means that there will be NO music and there is going to be a list of changes made on my blog. The list follows:

• ALL music will be disabled until the Eid Holidays
• No SWEARING allowed during this month
• Less information on Dido & The Sims (basically it's like my previous blogger diet)
  
• More information on life in Dubai
• Quran Videos to replace "Music Bar"

and more things to be added on the list. All of this will take place as of TODAY!

Ramadan already?

Yes! At long last it's now the Holy Month of Ramadan. All work hours as well as school & university hours are shorter :) the malls are open till 4AM :D The Gins can not attack us during this holy month. Life is now amazing. Oh yeah I also got like a billion movies to watch & I also got The Sims 2 Apartment Life (at last). Could life get any better? But enough about me, I'm sure everyone else has better than I do. As the saying goes "Nobody's Perfect, I am nobody" lol
Oh yeah the most important thing to mention:
RAMADAN KAREEM EVERYONE!

Ramadan to Start on September........

Ramadan to start on September 1, say astronomers
The Astronomical New Moon for Ramadan is on Saturday, August 30th, and the first day of the holy month of Ramadan for the Hijri year of 1429 will be on Monday, September 1, 2008, while Eid Al Fitr will be on October 1, according to astronomers.
According to Ebrahim Al Jarwan, researcher and supervisor of the Sharjah Planetarium, the astronomical calculations say the Hilal (crescent) will be born on August 30 at 23:58 local time. Sighting of the new moon which will be at 23:58 local time after the sun sets at 18:38 local time will not be possible.
In Islam, moon sighting determines the beginning and ending of Ramadan.
"On Sunday, August 31, the 18-hour old moon will disappear at 18:54 and will be visible only for 16 minutes", he added.

The last day of the dawn-to-dusk fasting month will be on Tuesday, September 30, and therefore the Eid Al Fitr, one of the two main religious festivals on the Islamic calendar, will be on Wednesday, October 1.
