Three Eids in USA

WASHINGTON: Muslims in the United States will observe three Eids this year. Most of the Arab-American community will celebrate Eid ul Adha tomorrow (Wednesday) while majority of the Pakistani-American community will mark this holy day on Thursday.

Yet another Eid will be observed on Friday (December 21) as the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA) has already announced, "The moon was not sighted anywhere in North America on Monday December 10, 2007 as such Wednesday December 12, 2007 is the first day of Dhul-Hijjah 1428 AH and Eid-ul Adha will be on Friday December 21, 2007."
