In an unprecedented move the so-called Supreme Islamic Council (SIC) have altered its initial communication that tobaski will be observed in the Gambia on Friday, December 21, 2007. The SIC have subsequently announced that Tobaski should instead be observed on Thursday, December 20, 2007. 
   
  Happy & blessed Eid/tobaski/banna/donkin wishes to all!

  Suntou,

Thanks for the notification. Here in the Gambia, the Supreme Islamic Council (SIC) has decreed Friday 21st December to be Tobaski day. It sometimes make me wonder if The Gambia is on planet earth. What is SIC's logic behind the two days difference for observing Tobaski between us and Saudi Arabia! 

Wishing all a happy eid in advance. The festival of the Ram is definitely the most joyful time for the Sereres, Jolas and Jahankas.

fellow Muslim brothers and sisters ,it is has been announce from Saudi Arabia that the day of Eid or tobaski will on the 19Th of December.

The day of Arafah which is the height of hajj is on the 18Th December Tuesdays.It is highly recommended for Muslims to FAST on arafah day .

The Eid cerebration's takes one day after Arafah .this year Tobaski is Wednesday the 19Th.many where expecting it t be on the 20Th but it fall on the 19Th instead.

it is also a sunnah ,very strong sunnah for financially stable Muslims to perform the sacrifice of a lamb,goat,cow or camel.depending on ones ability and tagwa.it is not an excuse not to perform the sacrifice,now people can buy the lamb from every country in the world.let us take part in this noble tradition.if for reason beyond our control we cannot slaughter were we live,then send money back home for them to sacrifice the animal for you.it is recommended to do it were one live .
in u.k people pay money in advance to meat sellers and they buy the full lamb on your behalf and the slaughter takes place after the eid prayer.then you either collect your meat or pay for delivery.last year a lamb cost about £50 ,may a £5 rise this year .
May Allah make it easy for us.
