As Aregberascal Fools Himself, Saudi Switches To Gregorian Calender by FeloniousFelon: 11:10am On Sep 21, 2017 |
Saudi Arabian civil servants will lose 11 days of pay after the country switched to the Gregorian calendar, the predominant format for organizing time in the West. The switch is part of austerity measures meant to curb the budget deficit. Previously, only the private sector of the Gulf monarchy used the Gregorian calendar of its oil customers to calculate salaries, while the public sector has used the Islamic lunar Hijri calendar since 1932. Under it, a year comprises of 12 months lasting 354 or 355 days, or 11 days shorter than the Gregorian calendar. The salaries are calculated on annual basis, so a longer year translates into less payment for the employees. The switch came into force on Sunday, the last day of the year 1437 AH, and is part of a wider austerity effort that the Saudi government is enacting to cut budgetary spending, Gulf News reported. Riyadh is also curbing financial perks for public servants, salaries of officials, annual bonuses, transport allowances, and the number of annual holidays. The new rules apply to both civilian and military officials regardless of their nationality, according to the report. Saudi Arabia, the world’s top oil exporter, has been hit hard by the drop in crude oil prices that began in 2014, forcing it to attempt massive reform to cut spending and diversify the economy. OPEC nations have been struggling to agree on freezing output, a measure that would help stabilize prices, amid Riyadh’s confrontation with Tehran over Iran’s market share, which it wants to regain following the lifting of US-championed sanctions on its oil trade. https://www.rt.com/news/361408-saudi-arabia-austerity-calendar/ 2 Likes |

You bow down 5 times a day to a black stone in Mecca which is in Saudi Arabia. Either Allah is the name of the black stone or 1.4 billion people have been slamming their heads on the ground in vain for the past several centuries. Sirjamo: 2 Likes |

OkunrinOloro: Muslims are actually pagans. The kabbah was a pagan shrine housing 360 idols. Muslims originally prayed facing Jerusalem, but after Mohammed was rejected as a prophet by both Jews and Christians in Arabia, he reinvented his religion with the Kabbah as the centre of worship. The moon is also important in Islam because the god of Islam, allah is actually the pagan Arabian moon goddess known as alliat. The rammadan fasting month was actually a holy month celebrating alliat ande that is why Islam is represented by a moon crescent and a star. 7 Likes 1 Share |

SluttanSlayer:Very correct. Islam remains the only religion that is constantly seeking validation from anything or anyone. See them chasing Jewish and Christians holy books for proofs. See them chasing Science, Anthropology, Astrology, philosophy and Occult just to prove that Islam is a religion for humanity. What Madness!! Christians are cool headed and confident worshippers of the true God and as such they are always firm in their beliefs in the Lord Jesus Christ 3 Likes 1 Share |

The painful part is the fact that our leaders go to the center and shout about poor citizens to federal govt in order to get more money but once that allocation comes, they focus on religious activities like sallah ram and mosque building. And now it is Islamic calendar of all things. |

TooMuchStuff: Please dont ever give this answer in public again. If you dont know just avoid the question. The answer you gave are all wrong. The questions asks "who is the true God of Christians"? The God of Jesus will be the God of his followers. So can you say any of those names you listed is the God of Jesus? |
