EID MUBARAK to all our Muslim Brothers and Sisters
Eid al-Fitr is celebrated across the globe as a culmination of a fasting and abstinence month.

Message from a Dear friend
=======================
"Here, we start celebrating right from the early morning prayers when we all, including all the women of the house, go together to offer Eid prayers. I felt so emotional offering the Eid prayers with my son, grandson, daughter, daughter in law and their kids. The feeling of happiness is indescribable. It’s such a blessing to be in this country where we get to celebrate Eid beautifully not only with our family and relatives but people of so many different nationalities.
"It is one of those precious moments I'll always cherish. Eid’s focus is being with family, loved ones and I’m thanking Allah immensely for giving us these prized moments."

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
