Eid-l-fitri 2019: Sultan Orders Search For The New Crescent On Monday's Night by Lukgaf(m): 5:01am On Jun 03, 2019
The Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs (NSCIA), under the leadership of its President-General and Sultan of Sokoto, His Eminence, Alh. Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar, CFR, mni, felicitates with the entire Muslim Ummah in Nigeria and all over the world on this year’s Ramadan Fast. The Council prays that the Almighty Allah accept it from us as an act of Ibadah. Amin.

Following the advice of the National Moon Sighting Committee (NMSC), the President-General enjoins the Nigerian Muslim Ummah to search for the crescent of Shawwal 1440 AH immediately after sunset on Monday, June 3, 2019 equivalent to Ramadan 29, 1440 AH. If the crescent is sighted by Muslims of impeccable character on the said evening, His Eminence would declare Tuesday, June 4, 2019 as the first day of Shawwal and the day of ‘idul fitr.



If, however, the crescent is not sighted that day, then, Wednesday, June 5, 2019 automatically becomes the first day of Shawwal, 1440 AH and the day of ‘idul fitr.

Muslims all over the country are hereby enjoined to be on the lookout for the directive of His Eminence, the President-General of NSCIA, on the termination of this year’s Ramadan fast.

In addition to established and traditional Islamic leaders in each locality, members of the National Moon Sighting Committee who can be contacted for information and clarification are:

While reminding the Ummah of the necessity of paying Zakatul-Fitri with the intention of lifting the hearts of the indigent members of the community, the Council urges all to ensure its delivery to the appropriate recipients (i.e. the poor) and guard against its diversion by any agent or intermediary.

All media houses in the country are requested to kindly publicise the awaited announcement by His Eminence, the President-General of NSCIA and Sultan of Sokoto.

‘Id Mubarak in advance!

Signed

Prof. Salisu Shehu
Deputy Secretary-General, NSCIA

Nah, It Will Be Verified By Multiple Source..

What multiple sources? You mean overzealous people calling to have seen the moon? How do you verify new moon that will only be seen for some secs/mins?

They should just admit that they follow Saudi Arabia sightings.

Stupid looking for the moon even after Govt has declared Tue.and Wed as holidays.I used to abandon the oath but it means nothing. I believe in JESUS CHRIST as the Saviour of the world.You people run your mouths in Christian session and nobody put any oath there.You Muslims are suffering from insecurity and low self esteem.Quran is not translated because of its secrecy and then an oath on Nairaland so that nobody can criticise you.You kill,bomb and make the world restless in the name of Jihad yet it's a religion of peace. Repent and give your life to Jesus Christ,the ONLY way to Heaven.Jesus loves all.Muslims and want to save them.He is Ruhu Tulai and Kalma Tulai.waiting for your crucifixion.
Seun, to avoid double standard, we Christians wants to put out own oath too before anyone can comment
JESUS CHRIST IS LORD FOREVER

You aren't making any sense. Complain to the mods or Seun, if you want an oath on your thread. Nobody hold una. The oath was placed there so people like you wouldn't come and rain insults on Muslims and Islam. You have done just that even with the oath there.

And to the other matter you raised. I will ask just one question: a pastor recently slept with and impregnated various women in his congregation (married/unmarried) in one of the eastern states, are we to judge all Christians and the Bible to be in support of adultery and fornication??
Don't judge Islam by the actions of Muslims no matter how holy they appear. Rather judge Muslims by the laws of Islam.


Oh, I just saw you said the Qur'an isn't in a translated form. Ignore my post its no use discussing with people like you. More like drawing water from a mirage....
