Re: Ramadan Kareem To Every Muslim by ExInferis(m): 1:29pm On Aug 31, 2008 |
its time we own up to the truth: nigerian muslims are making the same mistake year after year. the month of ramadan DOES NOT begin until first september, ie tomorrow. right now in the whole world only nigerians are fasting. the moon rises in the EAST, and since most of the middle east is a couple of hours ahead of us (GMT +) i fail to see how year after year we are the first to sight the moon. the sun sets two hours in saudi arabia before it does here, and the moon rises from their side of the heavens. in Dubai they have an array of telescopes and other astronomical tools aimed at the sky since last night and this morning they conceded not to have sighted the ramadan new moon so i wonder how it is we here saw it with our naked eyes. this practice is highly questionable and it speaks volumes that in the entire world only nigerians are in the month of ramadan. even a cursory glance at any islamic calendar will reveal 1st september as the commencement of the month of ramadan. as for me, my fasting starts tomorrow. you may also want to look here http://www.moonsighting.com/calendars/2008ummulqura.html and read this from the link above A suggested Global Lunar Calendar based on Imkan-e-Ru'yah (sighting possibility) somewhere in the world is that if the moon is born before 12:00 UT [23:59 or less of the previous day at International Date Line (IDL)], then the month begins at sunset of that day everywhere in the world. If the moon is born after 12:00 UT, then the month begins on the next day's sunset everywhere. IDL has been universally accepted even by Muslims as the beginning of every day of the week. All Muslims pray Friday prayers on the same day starting at IDL. Global Lunar Calendar should also follow the same convention of the day, so that the whole world can start Ramadan or Eid on the same day. The moon born before 12:00 UT has Imkaan-e-Ru'yah somewhere on earth, and the moon is born before the day begins at IDL, so the whole world can start the month on the same day. This suggested Global Lunar Calendar is so easy to calculate for any ordinary Muslsim that no expertise of astronomy or science is required. All that is needed is Conjunction time which is easily available from many sources on the Internet. This suggested Global Calendar was also discussed at Morocco Conference, November 2006 attended by representatives from various Islamic countries. you may also want to read this: When is Ramadan in 2008? Ramadan in 2008 will start on Monday, the 1st of September and will continue for 30 days until Tuesday, the 30th of September. Based on sightability in North America, in 2008 Ramadan will start in North America a day later - on Tuesday, the 2nd of September. Note that in the Muslim calander, a holiday begins on the sunset of the previous day, so observing Muslims will celebrate Ramadan on the sunset of Sunday, the 31st of August. Although Ramadan is always on the same day of the Islamic calendar, the date on the Gregorian calendar varies from year to year, since the Gregorian calendar is a solar calendar and the Islamic calendar is a lunar calendar. This difference means Ramadan moves in the Gregorian calendar approximately 11 days every year. The date of Ramadan may also vary from country to country depending on whether the moon has been sighted or not. The dates provided here are based on the dates adopted by the Fiqh Council of North America for the celebration of Ramadan. Note that these dates are based on astronomical calculations to affirm each date, and not on the actual sighting of the moon with the naked eyes. This approach is accepted by many, but is still being hotly debated. http://www.when-is.com/ramadan-2008.asp |

Dear brothers/sisters, the blessed month has come let's start planting to harvest full/filled baskets of reward in manifolds. As such do not forget to take your sahur and hasten to break your fast when it's time.Observe the rules of fasting and also, do not forget some rewardful sayings like, la ilah ilalah subuhana lah Alhamdulilah Allahu Akbar May Allah continue to shower His bountiful blessing on us, (amin) |
Re: Ramadan Kareem To Every Muslim by rhamz: 2:29pm On Aug 31, 2008 |
Wa alaikum Salam,Fasting does not mean merely abstaining from eating and drinking so lets not forget those things that are required from us during dis month and after (1) Performing the other acts of worship and duties, and Salat in particular, without which no other act of worship is accepted by Allah. Praying in congregation is a great aspect in our religion. (2) Refraining from bad behavior such as lying, cheating, smoking, backbiting and slandering others to create animosity among them. The Prophet (peace be on him) said: "No slanderer shall enter the Jannah." (3) Be extraordinarily cautious in using the senses, the mind, especially, the tongue; to abstain from careless and gossipy chats and avoid all suspicious motions.A fasting person preserving the purity of the fast should not be involved in talking behind others, intrigues, aspersions, vilifications, lies, altercations, name-callings and swearing as well as perjuries. (4) It is advisable as Sunna that a fasting person spends most of his time reading the Holy Qur'an, devoting himself to worship and offering in close perception of Allah. Increase your remembrance of Allah, and recitation of Qur'an and listening to it, and contemplation of its meanings. Act on it and attend the beneficial discussions in the mosques, and practice I'tikaf in the Masjid at the end of Ramadan (this is Sunnah). May ALLAH make them easy for us, Amin

Ex Inferis: As long as your muslim leader; Sultan declares it, you are expected to commence. Once you hear that it has been declared; off you go! Perhaps you might go to sokoto next year with me so we can confirm these findings of the moon-sighting. However, like a popular scholar suggested today, 'Amirs' from various states of the country should be present at the sultan's palace when this event is around so that we stop this 'madness' of HAUSAS NEVER COMPLETE THIRTY DAYS IN SHABAN OR THEY NEVER FAST 29 DAYS IN RAMADAN. quoted from http://www.moonsighting.com/1429rmd.html |

Re: Ramadan Kareem To Every Muslim by Dapo4u(m): 7:55pm On Aug 31, 2008 |
@ Ex Inferis, You are absolutely right. Technically moon cannot be sighted first in Nigeria based on her geographical location because if Saudi Arabia with 2 hours ahead of Nigeria and paraphernalia of its telescopic apparatus did not sight the moon yesterday ,it MIGHT have not have been feasible in Nigeria. Be that as it may, the prophet Allah (s.a.w) strongly advise us to respect the people in the position of authority ,not fasting today in Nigeria as a Muslim, you may be disobeying the people we put in a position of authority. But verily they shall be held accountable in the hereafter, Allah knows best. We are starting here tomorrow Insah Allah and may Allah accept it from us as an act of Ibadah. Ramadan Kareem!! |

ALLAHU AKRAM May God accept our Fast and prayers, Accept good deeds from all of us, Give us Mercy and peace, Help all of us and guide us to the Right Way, Help all of us to be as He likes and Help us to draw nearer and nearer to Him, Allahuma Ameen By the way, as all of you know, we are supposed to answer any one says "Ramadan Kareem" by saying "Allahu Akram". "Ramadan Kareem" means Ramadan is generous so we are supposed to answer "Allahu Akram", which means God is Most Generous. It is just a way to remember How endless are God's Blessings. May Allah Bless all of You Abu Huraira, May Allah be pleased with him, reported: 'I heard Allah's Apostle, May the Blessings of Allah and Peace Be Upon him, saying regarding Ramadan, "Whoever prays at night in the month of Ramadan out of sincere faith and hoping for a reward from Allah, all their previous sins will be forgiven." (Bukhari) |

@mustay checking ur lists its quite amazing Nigeria appears twice(northern and southern).na wa for us o. its sad dat even things dont work in nijja even in religious circles.may Allah save us. but check http://aa.usno.navy.mil/idltemp/current_moon.php and http://aa.usno.navy.mil/faq/docs/moon_phases.php to see what d moon looks like today and u would know its hardly ( or impossible) to av seen d moon any where on earth. at least d libyans were more candid to av declared theirs is based on calculations.and dats what the northern segment (note am not tribalistic) of the muslims also do but never own up to doing it.the southern muslims(league of alfas and imams)dont base theirs on sighting but also on calculations.so its wrong for them to accuse those alfas of not sighting cos they dont as well. well Ramadan this year will be (expectedly) 30 days so the northerners fast is expected to end 28th sep(as they usually fast for 29 days-am over 25 years and av not witnessed one done for 30 days by them).meanwhile the rest of the world fast would end(most likely) on 30th sep.so lets see how they fix things up this time around with a 42 hour difference. ALL IN ALL RAMADAN KAREEM TO THE MUSLIMS WORLDWIDE.may Allah grant our prayers.(AAAAAAmiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin) |
