Kayhan’s jab at Molavi Abdulhamid: What justification does he have for this great sin?
The Kayhan newspaper mocked Molavi Abdulhamid in its satire column for announcing Eid al-Fitr early.
The newspaper wrote, saying, isn’t the Baluchistan region located between Iran and Pakistan?
I said, what kind of question is that? Baluchistan is located between Iran and Pakistan, and both we and Pakistan have separate provinces with the same name.
He said, then why, when both Iran and Pakistan had declared Saturday as Eid al-Fitr, did Sheikh Abdulhamid, the Imam of the Makki Mosque in Zahedan, declare Friday as Eid? Does he believe Zahedan can have a separate horizon from both sides? Other Sunni scholars in Baluchistan also declared Saturday as Eid and stood for prayer with their Sunni compatriots.
I said, Sheikh Abdulhamid has stated that we have some individuals whose eyes are stronger than telescopes and cameras and can see the moon.
