Muslims'
Affairs in `Eid
`Eid
Marked by a Sour Taste in Palestine!
Unlike
other countries, where `Eid is a time for rejoicing, the Palestinian
family do not enjoy the `Eid. Rather, they remember vividly their lost
martyrs. This very feeling overwhelm the family atmosphere.
Let’s
imagine the `Eid of a bereaved mother who lost her child, how could she
celebrate the `Eid?!
Families
of martyrs who gather together to have their Iftar meal remember with a
deep sense of sadness those lost in the unjust Israeli war. So joy and
merry making that is common in both Ramadan and the `Eid are rarely
noticed in Palestinian families.
As
for those missed or held in concentration camps, the only relief those
families have is the glimmer of hope that those absent will return one
day or the other.
No
doubt that the climate in Palestine has become very gloomy and
Palestinians are crying for help but in vain!
How
could a Palestinian family wallow in luxury and rejoice while their
breadwinner is behind prison bars.
It
is high time to utter sincere supplications so that the situation
returns to normal and those incarcerated will be set free in the near
future!
