I'm not a Muslim myself but just want to say how much I respect your moderate approach - would be good if the media spent more time highlighting regular "everything in moderation" brothers, like all of my Muslim friends, and you good folks clearly (in attending Glasto), as opposed to the couple of nutjobs out there who seem to get 99% of coverage. See you in two weeks, my friends :rolleyes:

My good festival dwelling friends, firstly i would like to thank Sam and others for there non-stereotypical attitude to a couple brothers wanting to keep the peace with 'THE ONE'. Thank you.

As for music being Harram, you are correct sir. Does that mean I am going to segregate myself from western culture, friends and lifestyle? The answer is No. Humans adapt to their environment which is what makes us different to any other species (not that I aggree with evolution) lol

Glastonbury is merely a way to feed the Western up bringing that I have been exposed to for 26 years and is such a big part of my life. There just has to be a balance of culture and religion.

A man with a hook jumping and shouting "death to all infidels" is NOT, I repeat NOT the voice of the religion. Which is why I feel its important to attend venues such as Glastonbury to break the stereotype of all muslims being terrorist and the ticking is not their watch! lol

There's a bit on here - http://www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk/info...iritual-support

- Muslim Prayer

Jumu'ah (Juma) will be prayed on Friday June 26th at 1:30pm. Any muslims, or others who are interested in learning more about Islam, are welcome to join in reading Namaz. This is not an official arrangement and there are no facilities, therefore it will be everyone's responsibility to ensure their own wudhu and to bring a prayer mat. I intend to read Namaz in the Healing Field and will call Adhan at 1:15pm, but plan to be there well before. If you would like any further information or wish to make contact before going please email me at leekennedy1404@hotmail.com.

Hope that helps!

Enjoy ;)

The info at the above link on the Official Glasto Site is possibly very old - the page is at least a couple of years old in general I would guess seeing that it still mentions the Common Ground cafe being in the Acoustic Field. It wasn't there last year and almost certainly wont be there this year.

Having said that, the Glasto Friday is June 26th this year whereas it hasn't been for many years so perhaps this bit is up to date. However, well worth trying to contact the guy to make sure that someone hasn't just changed the date on an old bit of info without actually confirming that the details given are entirely correct. Knowing how important it is, I wouldn't want anyone to turn up only to find the info on the Official Site is wrong and they aren't able to make alternative arrangements.

I to am dismayed that there has been no sufis at glasto as i belive this is the perfect setting for spiritual enlightement through music. I will be going to the faith field to do a sufi display for all those that are interested ??

Regards the sufis
