Yet the Holy Prophet (PBUH) did not forbid lunar calculations!! But only stated that as the Arabs were illiterate, they didn't use such calculations (as per Sahih Bukhari)... This argument actually disproves your assertion
He did not. He also did not allow them to be used as the sole source for declaration of Ramzan. Per Hadeeth these are the only conditions for Ramzan
1) Sighting of the moon or witness testimony to that effect
2) completing 30 days.
It doesn’t disprove my argument. If it were permissible you would have found proof of the use of lunar calculations. The Arabs were illiterate, the subsequent dominion of Islam was not.
