Tigrean Orthodox church was the one that originally proposed "Tsome Tigray" but all other Christian denominations, and then Hebrews and Muslims joined voluntarily.
Tsome Tigray will start tomorrow. There is hope it will be canonized by all religious institutions in Tigray and become a joint fasting period for 1000s of years and not just this for year only. If Canonized, it will be the first of its kind in the entire world, when Muslims and Christians in Tigray will have a joint 3 day fasting every year.
ps,
Fast of Tigray is very similar to Fast of Nineveh(which also lasts for 3 days). The Chaldeans of Assyria also spoke a language very similar to Geez/Tigrigna. And Jesus spoke that language mainly,and he was very fluent with it..
Re: "Tsome Tigray" is going to be three-day Fasting period for Muslims and all Christian denominations in Tigray.
Do you think you can cheat God by pretending to be a God-fearing pious people? God knows what the Agame is like and has been punishing you for thousands of years. But of course, since the good days of looting Ethiopians are now over, and Agames are reverting to their famine times, fasting is a good idea of preparing for what is coming your way. Shed some of that fat that was accumulated by theft.
