Today marks the New Year in the Islamic calendar. Today is the first day of Muharram, the first month in the Islamic calendar, which is lunar.
“I hope that (before Allah) the fast of the day of Ashurah will be a source of forgiveness of the previous [year]”

We have Muslim readers?

I have a sneaky suspicion that Donviti is a Muslim. It would explain his anti-Catholic posts. 😉
Well, he could also be Jewish or Protestant. We Catholics have many enemies.
thanks for linking to islam.com. Now there is no doubt in my mind the NSA is watching us
