Today’s date is Friday 26th Sha’ban 1442H / 9th April 2021.

The basic ruling in Islam is to search for the moon when the month of Sha'ban is 29. If the moon is sighted then Ramadan starts!
Otherwise Sha'ban is counted to 30 days and Ramadan starts after.

So Sha'aban 29th will be Monday April 12 2021.

If the Sultan announces the sighting of the moon by Monday evening then we start fasting on Tuesday April 13 2021.
If the moon wasn't announced to be sighted then Sha'ban will be counted to 30.
Fasting then starts on Tuesday April 14 2021.

Evidence: Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (May Allah exalt his mention and protect him from imperfection) said: “Fast when you see the new moon (of Ramadan) and break your fast when you see the new moon (of Shawwal.) If clouds prevent you from seeing it, complete thirty days in the month of Shaban (the one that precedes Ramadan). (Al-Bukhari and Muslim).

Commentary: (…) If the moon of Ramadan is not sighted on the 29th Sha’ban, then its thirty days be completed and Ramadan’s Saum be started on the next day. Similarly, if the moon for the month of Shawwal is not sighted on the 29th of Ramadan, thirty days of Saum must be completed before celebrating ‘Eid-ul-Fitr. This means that the sighting of the moon is necessary for keeping the Saum of Ramadan. Counting by celestial system is not sufficient for this purpose. (…)

Note: Each country is expected to sight the moon for Ramadan! Nigerians are not to use the moon sighting in Saudi Arabia to start Ramadan!

Evidence: Kurayb repoted: I came to Syria and tended to my needs. The crescent of Ramadan appeared over me while I was in Syria and I saw it on Friday, then I came to Medina at the end of the month. Abdullah ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, asked me about it and I mentioned the crescent. Ibn Abbas said, “When did you see it?” I said, “We saw it on Friday night.” Ibn Abbas said, “You saw it?” I said, “Yes, people saw it and they fasted, as did Mu’awiyah.” Ibn Abbas said, “But we saw it on Saturday night, so we will continue fasting until we complete thirty days or we see it.” I said, “Is it not enough that Mu’awiyah saw it and he fasted?” Ibn Abbas said, “No, such was the command of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him.”

In summary

If the moon is sighted on Monday then Ramadan starts on Tuesday April 13, 2021.

If the moon wasn't announced to have been sighted on Monday then Ramadan starts on Wednesday April 14, 2021.

May Allah accept all our good deeds, pardon us our sins, heal the world of Covid-19, grant succor to the distressed, forgive our dead and Grant us Jannah without stress.

So the month of Ramadan starts on Tuesday or Wednesday? (Rhetoric)!

May Allah let us complete the month with abundant acceptable good deeds! Aamin

Oya make the month start abeg, so that Allah can chain the devils for us so that we know who to blame for the atrocities performed in the month of Ramadan

The way Mods are preventing Christians from commenting on Muslim trends on Fridays.

I hope such gestures will be extended to Muslims on Sundays

We can ask the moon

Allahu Akbar

BUT PLEASE CAN THE YORUBA MUSLIMS BE ALLOWED TO SIGHT THE MOON? I AM JUST ASKING

Atleat bombing and fulani terrorism will stop for a while; after the Ramadan, they begin their normal bombing and killing

First day of Ramadan 2021 is expected to begin on Tuesday April 13, 2021

May Allah let us witness more of Ramadan.
