السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
Dear Brothers/Sisters in Islam,
Please make a group effort to sight the Hilal on Wednesday, January 13, 2021, for the month of Jumada al-Akhirah, 1442.
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.
The birth of the Hilal for Jumada al-Akhirah 1442 will take place on January 13, 2021, at 12:00 AM EST. (5:00 UTC)
Information About the Hilal
Details for major cities on the 29th of Jumada al-Ula, Wednesday, January 13, 2021.
All times are in their respective local time zones.
