Jumadul Ūla 1441
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
Dear Brothers/Sisters in Islam,
Please make a group effort to sight the Hilal on Thursday, December 26, 2019, for the month of Jumadal Ūla 1441.
This is an excellent opportunity to easily revive a neglected Sunnah and a forgotten Fardh Kifayah.
Take your important part in this blessed effort. If we all try to sight the moon in our respective vicinities, this will automatically negate false reports.
Alhamdulillah, by the joint effort of all the Ulama and great cooperation throughout the States, we have revived this forgotten Sunnah of moonsighting throughout the year in many localities, all across the nation.
***Information About the Hilal***
The birth of the Hilal for Jumadal Ūla 1441 will take place on December 26, 2019, at 12:13 am EST (05:13 UTC).
Details for major cities on the 29th of Rabiul Thani, (Thursday, December 26, 2019) are below.
