So, no one can give opinion that these are allowed for Muslims. These will be banned till the last day.
Asking is encouraged in Islam . There is a verse in Quran that says , ask those who know.
Ans must be based on Quran & hadith. Anything that goes against Quran & authentic hadith can't be accepted as this is from God Almighty.
Arabic months follow the lunar calendar. So , there is a time difference ...where people see new moon , they start holy Ramadan , when they see new moon , they celebrate Eid. Where people cant' see moon , they fast one more day ...complete the 30 days fasting etc.
Muslims have no differences on the most major matter for salvation --God is one.
God has no partner , human being or angel must not be worshipped ---u won't see any different opinion about it in Islam
anyway, let's wait for ans from a more knowledgable person
