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

Thiruvananthapuram, Mar 18: Bindhu Sampath, the mother of Nimisha alias Fathima who travelled from Kerala to Afghanistan to join the Islamic State (IS), has sought the Central government's help to bring her daughter back to India.

"I saw a video of my daughter in which she was requesting her return to India. She has realised that India is her country, not Afghanistan. She is scared that she'll be put in jail over there. Responding to my mail, the Afghanistan government has said that the procedure will take time," said Bindhu Sampath.

"I believe in Indian laws. Let her be questioned and realise what is good or bad. I am waiting for the Central government's confirmation on the matter," added Sampath.

Around four years back, a team of 21 members which consisted of couples and children went to Syria from Kerala to join ISIS and lead an Islamic life. After they left, police registered a case against them, which has been handled by the National Investigation Agency.
