Toning Down Eid Festivities This Year.

According to Ibrahim Cooper, revert supreme, there are two "strains" of thought about this.

Ibby?? Strains? That makes me think that thoughts are, well-like bowel movements.

"There are two strains of thought," Hooper said. "One is that Islam should not be blamed for 9/11 and that Muslims should not have to alter their religious practices, and that if you do, that shows some kind of guilt; and the other is, 'Hey, let's show a little sensitivity.' "

"The convergence even feels uncomfortable for some Muslims. "On one hand, 9/11 is a very difficult day for us, and on the other hand, Eid is like our Christmas - it's a day for celebration," said Zeba Iqbal, executive director of the Council on the Advancement of Muslim Professionals, one of several groups promoting a Muslim day of service on Sept. 11. "We're all very bittersweet and somewhat conflicted as to the best way to celebrate and commemorate at the same time."

I think that for some (many?) there is no conflict whatsoever.
