Zul-Hijja on Thursday, Nov. 19
Written by Web Master   
Tuesday, 17 November 2009

There are no authenticated naked-eye Hilal Sighting reports from anywhere in USA & Canada. The apparent sighting claim from Connecticut was too close to Sunset time and very far from Hilal Visibility curve, while places South and West of it like San Diego with much better sighting chances reported negative sighting in spite of clear weather.

Thus we complete 30 days of Zul-Qida and start Zul-Hijja on Thursday, Nov. 19 for USA & Canada, with Eid-Ul Adha on Saturday, November 28, 2009 based on the criterion of Contiguous (Mainland) USA and Canada to be one Matla. Note that according to prominent Ulema including Saudi Ulema like Sheikh AlOthaimeen (RH), we should do Local Hilal Sighting for all 12 months including Dhul-Hijja and celebrate Eid-UlAdha accordingly. Detailed papers with Fatawa are on our website.

Shawwal 1430H Report
Written by Web Master   
Saturday, 19 September 2009
There are no authenticated Hilal sighting reports from mainland USA or Canada on September 19. An apparent sighting claim near New Orleans, LA was unreliable on the basis of incorrect time, shape and location. Negative reports were received from Florida, Texas, California etc. The Astronomical Data also predicted that Hilal would not be sighted by naked-eye in mainland USA.

Thus we complete 30 days of Ramadan and celebrate Eid ul Fitr on Monday, September 21, 2009. This decision was reached unanimously by the Hilal Committee and the final decision was made by the Ameer of the Committee – Maulana Ghouse Nadawi in California.
