Today is the first day of the Islamic new year ( Hijrah calendar- AH
) 1421
The festivities include what we have locally in Gambia as Tallabone and Tamharett
The tenth day is Ashura which is now a holiday in Banjul , I understand.- correct me if I am wrong
So I take this opportunity to wish
you all a happy new year and best wishes to on the L
and remember Gambia in our prayers
