The gentleman from asking congress is voting this week to spend another half a trillion dollars to help Small Businesses and hospitals but when it comes to helping State Government reeling from the loss of business and personal tax revenues the republican leader of the u. S. Senate says thats not going to happen yeah im a i would certainly be in favor of allowing that. Route it saves some so theres no good reason for vailable my guess is their 1st choice would be for the federal government to borrow money for generations to send it down to them now so they dont have to do that that they are going to be in much more money if the governor of new york state who is a democrat called Mitch Mcconnells comments outrageous yes airlines are important yes Small Business is important so of police and fire and Health Care Workers who are the front line workers and when you dont fund the state then the state cant fund those services fictional sense to me whats more new yorks economy is the 3rd largest in the u.

The new measures come into effect on friday thats the start of the muslim fasting month of ramadan despite government warnings of social distancing many are still attending press indonesia is the worlds most populous muslim nation. Because you know this is our ramadan worship the holy reward is different if you pray and im off the cameras and running out of like the key is not touching other people so during the prayer i keep distance with other people not touching that we take care of ourselves so hopefully this way we can keep worshipping and avoid in fiction. But many other countries are facing a lockdown restrictions jews are the pandemic and thats forcing some muslims to change the way they observe ramadan. As more. For hundreds of years muslims used to go out into empty fields looking at the sky to figure out when theyre done begins these days though clerics here in pakistan and elsewhere use telescopes to get 1st sight of the new moon once spotted ramadan starts. Its the holiest month in the calendar when muslims stop eating and drinking from sunrise to sunset. The fasting allows worshippers to devote themselves to their fate and remember the sufferings of the poor. But during the unprecedented coronavirus emergency muslims are abandoning many of providence traditions and rituals. They wont be able to invite their loved ones the neighbors or the 4 to join the. Evening Fast Breaking meal known as if. As 1900 spreads restrictions are being forced governments have closed borders imposed curfew years lockdowns and encouraged social distancing to contain the contagion islams holiest site in mecca is usually teeming with worshippers from all over the world during ramadan its closed this year as part of the subject governments campaign to curb the virus spread getting people everywhere to observe social distancing in ramadan wont be easy the highlight of ramadan is the night of destiny where muslims believe their holy book the koran was 1st revealed to the prophet mohammad and where the gates of heaven are open muslims spend the night in contempt lation and prayers in mosques a ritual they are being asked to perform at home this time islams most sacred month meant to encourage giulietti praying together and breaking their fast together may end up being a month of relative solitude. Where there are fears infractions in pakistan could rise rapidly Jerry Ramadan the government there has decided to keep mosques open and people gathering to pray must follow social distancing measures but doctors have urged the government to Muslim Leaders to reverse that decision lets take this on we can speak to our course when it comes to whos in islam about 4 miles or religious leaders have forces through but to what degree the question is will millions of worshippers follow the social distance rules that that are being asked of.

Showed that despite the fact that the government had poured their strictures on congregational prayers in the mosque the clerics then came out and threatened that they were defied those bans in fact some clerics defied it anyway that there was a race that there would be a confrontation between these clerics and the government and then declared experience today met with the pakistani president can range him that day should be some day should be some conditions under which congregational prayed will be allowed during the month of ramadan however dr that cross the country issuing their own warnings they asking their government and the clerics to act more responsibly because of the fact that they spend make is indeed very dangerous and the World Health Organization had already warned that if it gets done does not take the necessary action. Over 200005 made so indeed a very big challenge for the government which as you know keep a close watch because the doctor they have been warning that it is going to put them at great. Burden an already insufficient equipped medicare system that doctors are scared for their own lives so they have cause would be one thing that theyre going to gauge and praise should indeed that they dont mean should indeed more of a harsher ban in order to prevent its pandemic or at thats a picture in islamabad commo height of things a lot.
