Ullal Muslims plunge into confusion as local Khazi snubs Bhatkal moon

Mangaluru, Jun 25: Muslims in parts of Dakshina Kannada district have plunged into confusion after Khazi of Ullal refused to announce the beginning of Shawwal and urged his followers to fast on Sunday and celebrate Eid al-Fitr on Monday.

1ullal The bizarre development comes within hours after Dakshina Kannada district Khazi Thwaka Ahmed Musliyar formally declared the end of Ramadan after verifying the reports of moonsighting from Bhatkal in Uttara Kannada district.

Udupi Khazi Ibrahim Musliyar Bekal too has declared the end of Ramadan and announced that Sunday will be the first day of Shawwal in the region.

However, the unexpected decision of Ullal Khazi Fazal Koyamma Thangal Koorath to complete the 30th fasting of Ramadan has brought the divide among Muslims in the region to the fore.

Fasting on Eid day and celebrating Eid before the end of Ramadan are considered a sin in Islam. Hence, thousands of Muslims in the region are in dilemma. Taravih prayers were also reportedly held in Ullal Juma Masjid at midnight in spite of opposition from a section of clerics.

Meanwhile, many clerics are reportedly trying to convince the Ullal Khazi to change his decision and announce the beginning of Shawwal. More details are awaited.

Do whatever u want but please dont hurl bombs on each others mosques. Here other communities also reside.

Sad development. But the saddest thing is the ongoing grave worship in the same place. May Allah grant them Hidayah.

@Sharat, All are know who plant bombs , fake currencies, communal riots, extremely hungry to get in to power by killing innocent muslims, so better do some home work before post comments

@ Umar Farooq,

Sad thing is that still you are not matured enough to understand what
is grave worshiping ? May Allah grant you good mind to understand the difference between worshiping & respecting.

Then why u watch moon. If u tell this to saudi. They might ban u.

Yes Sharat exactly.... but not like Saadhvi Pragya or Asimanand...
Also not like swami OM baba and Nityananda..
Big salute for your chaddi words...

guys.. dont hurl bombs in Masjid... beside others also reside... better to hurls in Sanghi Shaka...only sanghis will dei.. no others.. they will sitin apart from public ... let them dei.... no issue

Extradited these useless thangas, they are there to devide muslims for their ego class...moon sighting in bhatkal is more than enough to end the month and celebrate the Eid. I think no need many khazis to Mangalore, they are spoil brat of Muslims especially in Mangalore becuase their EGO clash will not work in Kerala.
