The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) encouraged seeking the sighting of the moon. It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Fast when you see it and break the fast when you see it, and if it is too cloudy then complete the number (of days) of Sha’baan as thirty.” And it was narrated from ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The month is twenty-nine days, so do not fast until you see it, and if it is cloudy then complete the month as thirty days.” The first hadeeth enjoins fasting the month of Ramadaan when its new moon is sighted or when the month of Sha’baan is completed with thirty days, and it enjoins ending the fast when the new moon of Shawwaal is sighted, or when Ramadaan is completed with thirty days. The second hadeeth forbids fasting Ramadaan before the new moon is sighted or before Sha’baan has been completed if it is cloudy.
All this... plus... a little science.
First night moon stay in sky for like 3+- minutes, barely seen by human eye amd disappear within 2-3 minutes of maghrib azan/namaz. 2nd night moon stay for some 16-20 minutes, clearly can be seem by human eye. I, along thousands of others, experienced the second case last night. Hence saying, HOW were they unable to sight the moon a day before ? Maybe because there was no meeting ? Or maybe because they refused to take calls from KP. Whatever the reason. Logic amd science says that moon was supposed to be sighted 2 days ago, not last night.
Fawad Chaudry didn't criticise the committee, he attacked all Maulvis and even said disgusting things like they were against Pakistan
I haben’t watched the mews meither his imterview so can’t comment on what he said.
But yes, they were againt Pakistan. But not the molvis... a group of molvis comprised of deobandi ulema which made pretty much all of ulema involved in political struggle at that time.
But so did ANP and others.
I fully support Mufti Muneeb in his response to Fawad Chaudry. That fatso lota probably doesn't know that moon sighting is essential and calendars existed at Prophet Muhammad (saww) time too but still moon sighting was made mandatory.
Then again, he's a moron who said those things about Hubble telescope
Chaudjry fawad is a moron. Establisjed fact.
Chairman of Hilal Committee is an arrogant man full of ego. Also an established fact.
