Let the people decide the date of eid celebration in the Harrow central mosque

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Harrow central mosque is a community mosque used by many people from a variety of different backgrounds however the majority of Muslims celebrate eid based on the date announced by Saudi Arabia as the first day of eid.
The Harrow central mosque announced a different date for eid prayer and would not allow prayers for eid on any other day thus this shows they do not support the community but rather the beliefs of one sect of islam.
Evidence is the announcement of eid prayer on a different date compared to the date that the majority of Muslim worshippers announce.
