Dear Brothers and Sisters in Islam

Assalaam Alaykum Wa Rahmatullah Wa Barakatahu

On behalf of the Hilal Committee, I wish to inform that the new moon for Shawaal has not been sighted today. Therefore, the Hilal Committee would like to announce that we will complete 30 days of fasting tomorrow and Eid will be observed all over New Zealand on Wednesday, 31st August 2011.

We take this opportunity to extend our warmest and heartiest Eid Mubarak to all members of our community and congratulate them for having strived to fulfil this honourable obligation of fasting and praying.

Jazakallaho Khair and Wassalam.
