Eid Party for friends and neighbors- would you come?

[Anonymous]

of course!!! can I come?

[Anonymous]

Eid Mubarak! We'd be there in a heartbeat (not Muslim but we have many Muslim friends).

[Anonymous]

Yes, but will there be alcohol?

If you were my neighbor, as a non-Muslim, I would be delighted to join. Maybe just let me know a good resource to check if I'm concerned about being appropriate [what to wear and/or bring (casual since it's a house party, or dressed nicely since it's a holiday?) anything I should NOT bring (a dish with pork! ha.), etc.] if you think people may not know otherwise. And honestly, thank you for being the kind of person who would build bridges and welcome others.

They had the most scrumptious spread and they were the most cultured, educated and elegant hosts. Its about time the Western world realizes how enlightened, advanced, secular, egalitarian and culturally advanced the educated Muslims in Indian subcontinent and Iran are. Unfortunately, till date this voice is suppressed and what you see are the most uneducated and barbaric representation of the Muslim world. Akin to what you see in USA. The educated thinkers are suppressed and the most base and ill-educated men are ruling this place. This is the current state of the world. The most primitive and barbaric and right wing people are ruling the world. Perhaps this is the time for WWIII?

I would not come if this poster is going to be there. I like my parties lecture-free.

I wondered the same thing. DCUM requires it or you are snarled at as cheap
