Subhan Allah. If I made a mistake then I made a mistake.

But according to the ijm’aa, if a person who is ‘adl, that is ‘trustworthy’ (sane, practicing, good vision) says they see the moon, then you are no longer accountable for the sight of the moon, and your Ramadan starts or ends, respectively.

So if an Imam of a masjid in Cali and 5 of his students said they saw the moon, as well as people in Arizona, and they were confirmed, the the people who celebrated Eid on Monday have nothing to make up, as people who were ‘adl saw the moon and declared the month of Shawwal.

Wallahu Alam.

Depending on what school of fiqh you follow as to who and how many ‘adl people sighted the moon.

P.s. if u look at the skyline long enough to sight the moon, you will sight something which is not there but which you expect to be there.

p.s. 3 eids in one year is a major sign of the coming of Imam Mehdi (as)

As for the wahaabi fitnah, it is indeed the fault of wahaabis/salafis/ahle hadith etc. that eid is being celebrated on two days in the same country, if they (saudi wahaabis) discontinued the use of the umm al qura calendar then eid would be celebrated on the same days in the majority of the world.

FACT : Moon rises in the west and sets in the east, how saudi arabia see the moon before western countries is beyond belief every year, they dont sight no moon, they just use their umm al qura calendar and have already decided the eid and ramadan dates for years and years to come, they are the cause of worldwide (eid, ramadan) fitnah.

Eid ul Fitr (here) in UK was 24th October not 23th Oct, stop following Saudi Arabia and start following your own horizons.

Next time Saudi say “jump”, you should reply “you first”

Haq Lies with Ahle Sunnah and Ahle Sunnah Lies with Haq.

End the Wahaabi Fitnah … Ameen

nice to know someone form the uk did eid with us

When will people realize that Muslim unity is more important that fiqhi nuances?

And for the all the people who said “Now I have to fast an extra day,” learn Fiqh as-Siyaam and realize that you don’t have to.

Subhan Allah.

End the Wahhabi fitnah? LOL

I totally agree that any fitan brought on by any group, “wahhabis” included, needs to end bro. but this is so far beyond that! the “fiqh” council of north america (not affiliated with any particular maddhab, or ‘wahhab’ / ’salafi’ sect) used calculations and bypassed sighting altogether!

this is not a ‘wahhabi’ problem. bulldozing sacred islamic sites in and around the holy lands, now, that would be.
