Mangaluru, Sep 2: The Muslims in Kerala and coastal Karnataka will celebrate Eid-ul-Adha, the festival of sacrifice, on September 12. Saturday (September 3) marks the first day of the Islamic month of Dhul-Hijjah, and Eid always falls on the 10th day of this month.

eidMuslim religious heads and Khazis across Kerala and coastal Karnataka unanimously announced the date of Eid as the crescent moon was sighted in several parts of Kerala on Friday night.

The religious heads who confirmed the Eid date include Kerala Jemiyyathul Ulama President Abdul Hameed Madani, Mangaluru Khazi Thwaka Ahmed Musliyar and Udupi Khazi Ibrahim Musliyar Bekal.

Interestingly, most of the Muslim majority Middle Eastern countries including Saudi Arabia will also observe the Eid on the same day.

Eid follows the descent of the Hajj pilgrims from Mount Arafat, a hill in Makkah where Prophet Mohammed gave his final sermon.

Also during Eid-ul-Adha, Muslims traditionally slaughter an animal – usually a sheep, goat, cow or camel – to commemorate a similar offering to God made by the Prophet Abraham.

Dear SK

Dont be defensive... What CD mentioned is true and ALLAH made halal to sacrifice Camel, Cow , Goat or sheep which is also a Creation of ALLAH.... Cow is an option which is helpful to the POOR to sacrifice for the sake of ALLAH.
Dont think cheddis love Cow. Thats a fake love which they want to divert from the hindu masses to see them as bhakt.. Dont U see Cows are dying in the Gowshala? & smell are coming out in all places even in rajastan.
Its cheddi ideology to fool people ... Even in VEDAS we see many kings and hindu priests eating Cows...
So dont be defensive... Cow is HALAL . ALLAH, the creator of U, ME and all that exists has made it Halal...

In ISLAM, when U sacrifice, U will share the meat with U, Ur family and the Poor of your area... when we see in other culture, they sacrifice and bury the cows and buffaloes in the earth.. No benefit only loss of cows live...

I kindly request the Media to check before reporting.... For Qurbani, cows are seldom used, only buffaloes , bulls, goats, sheeps are used...

Such misreporting will encourage the sanghis like Naren to attack Islam

Mangaluru, Jul 15: Amidst mounting coronavirus cases, the district administration has finalised 80 covid care centres (CCC) in Dakshina Kannada.

Sindhu B Rupesh, deputy commissioner of DK, said that as many as 80 premises that were functioning as quarantine centres have now been identified as CCCs in the district.

People in the district have been demanding that CCCs should be opened for asymptomatic cases in the district too. 

A majority of around 1,500 active cases in Dakshina Kannada are asymptomatic, and the CCCs will help those planning to go to private hospitals to reduce their treatment costs.

Additional deputy commissioner M J Roopa said that the 80 CCCs identified throughout the district will work as care centres for asymptomatic Covid-19 patients.

A medical team will attend to the centres, and supply of food and water will be taken care of by the government. In case of any health issues, the patient will be shifted to the Covid hospital, she said.

“All asymptotic Covid-19 patients, who are unable to opt for home isolation, are being kept in CCCs. A designated health team will monitor each CCC in the district. Meanwhile, the nearest public health centre (PHC) will have an ambulance on standby in case of an emergency,” she added.
