It’s that time of the year again. Once more, we find ourselves at this crossroads – a path that forks two different ways – and we’re confused as to whether the one less traveled is truly worth it.
Thora zyada hogaya, but let’s recap.
Earlier today, Fawad Chaudhary announced that Eid will be on Sunday.

Now, here’s how Eid works. The Ruet-e-Hilal Committee gathers with its observatory gear to sight the moon. Almost always, some parts of the country celebrate Eid on one day, and the other parts celebrate it separately.
Once Fawad Chaudhary made this announcement, there was only one thing to look forward to – Mufti Muneeb’s response

Given that people are already expecting this phadda, they’ve taken to social media to make memes on the matter. And honestly, God bless memes. They’re really getting us through these harsh times.
1. Some people memed the moon itself

As one of my colleagues appropriately put it: to Eid or not to Eid, that is the question. What’s your take on this? Let us know in the comments.
