HJC - 'Eed al-Fitr 1429 – Tuesday 30 September 2008...

[S_87]

Official Decision and Announcement of the High Judiciary Council of Saudi Arabia...

Just a short time ago, Fatwa-Online was informed of the official decision and announcement of the High Judiciary Council (HJC) of Saudi Arabia that since the moon of Shawwaal was sighted this evening, here in Saudi Arabia, we shall be completing twenty nine(29) days of Ramadhaan (1429 A.H.), in accordance with the hadeeth of the Messenger of Allaah (sal-Allaahu `alayhe wa sallam):

((Fast when you see the crescent. If it is obscured to you, then complete thirty days of Sha'baan. And break your fast when you see the crescent. If it is obscured to you then fast thirty days)), [transmitted by al-Bukhaaree and Muslim].

Subsequently, we shall be celebrating 'Eed al-Fitr on Tuesday 30 September 2008, inshaa.-Allaah.


(source via email though fatwa-online.com probably has the announcement on their website)

Is this for all countries, or just Saudi Arabia?.. I know the UAE have confirmed it as well, though.

I still have to wait for them to confirm it here! They're praying taraweeh as I write this, so I think it's a long shot...:(

Eid mubarak to those who are celebrating tomorrow!
