Default islamic new year tomorrow

Usual question...

Does this mean the bars are closed from 6pm tonight?

Please don't speculate, deal in facts..

Thanks

This is ****ing serious. The queens 11 play the terrorists today at fortress ibrox.

It ko's at 1630 so I don't want to miss the last 15 minutes cause they have shut the bar...

Ok, as usual the BE posse were wrong...

Kidding, dubai must be different than abu dhabi.

All bars in the capital will be closed from 6pm TONIGHT and reopen 6pm tomorrow.

Glad I called around now...

it has nothing to do with the Emirate, it is the religion, but did they say the same as I said? they just stop serving but don't close?
