Eid is fast upon us. The full moon has already shown his face, so Ramazan will be broken at the earliest time. Thus, Thursday will be the last day of fasting (roza) and the beginning of Eid ul-Fitr.
Time to celebrate!
I shall be celebrating in the "deep, wild yonder" north of Islamabad and just south of Muzaffarabad [1] [2]. I am visiting the village of Siddique, who is a guard at ISOI and whose village was devastated by the earthquake. My purpose is to spend 24 hours determining potential projects for the funds raised through ISOI, during these holidays.
