    How it works…

    we try to sight the moon with the naked eye as per the tradition. We could find out easily via the science available nowadays. However it’s not about that it’s about carrying out the methods as they were always carried out I.e spotting the new moon with the naked eye.

    Weather factors such as cloud cover could affect this…so be it…that’s the way it’s always been done.

    Jak is in a Muslim country so these traditions will be ingrained into the culture and these practices are part of the process. So they will have some appointed people who will go to the highest spots for viewing the moon and will attempt to do so. This then probably gets announced on TV and the drum beats begin…sounds quite epic imo

    If they view it, then that signifies the end of Ramadan…if they don’t for whatever reason….then we assume that Ramadan is definitely over the day after due to the knowledge that a lunar cycle for a month will be 29 or 30 days.

    For me and others like me…being in the UK…we don’t have this tradition…so what happens for us is that we either follow what Saudi Arabia do what with that place being the ‘centre’ of Islamic heritage or we look to see what the nearest ‘Muslim’ country to the UK does…which has always been agreed upon as being Morocco.

    I’m waiting to hear the news that comes out of my local mosque.

    quite simple…hope I didn’t make it sound complex

    No that’s very simple to understand cheers dude….the Mayan’s did it and all…. trouble for them they believed sacrificing humans was the only way for this god to be appeased…..luckily you only get to go hungry for half a day which is a small sacrifice compared

    Nice. I was smoking some Brainstorm last week. The first strain I ever grew and it took me back to a happy place. Was nice.

    Nah, I’m looking after someone 24/7 now so can’t get into it. I had a grow outside. Had to dig a trench for about 70 yards through private land to hook up to the electricity. Probably the best one I’ve ever done, I’ll send you some pics tomorrow. If you let me know what’s there I might be able to get it taken off ya hands tho.

    So I guess its up to me to keep this thread going now, unless you are interested in starting a weed farm.

    Spaghetti Bolognaise followed by fruit for morning meal today. Another 9.5hrs of fasting to go.

    And to Spurlock: Minal aidin wal faizin
