    When are you starting Ramadan?

    Report bad ads?

    I have seen different dates on different sites.

    Please complete the poll to indicate when YOU are starting Ramadan (Obviously you may not be able to answer that until the actual sighting of the moon)

    Can you also tell me, which ruling you follow to start on that day? (I.e. according to your masjid, or your family etc)

    Thank you, and a beneficial and blessed month of Ramadan to you all!

    Re: When are you starting Ramadan?

    I am the first voter.

    Indonesian Ministry of Religion has released an official statement. Ramadan 1430H starting on 22 August 2009.

    After few years, this is the first time Indonesian Muslim organization, Muhammadiyah, starting Ramadan at the same day. In other years they always start and finish ramadan earlier. One day before other Muslim organizations start and finish ramadan.

    21st August is the first evening of shalaath taraweeh. For Suni only, of course. In Shiaism taraweeh is bid'ah.

    Re: When are you starting Ramadan?



    We will keep an eye out for the moon tonight,inshallah',if we see the moon Ramadhan will be Friday and taraweeh today. If not than Ramadhan will be Saturday and Taraweeh inshallah will be Friday. I cannot predict yet,as the moon is yet to come. Today will bring much scrambling around the house if Ramadhan is tommorow. But the Believer should be prepared because Allah can send a hardship anytime.

    I will vote on the poll inshallah,tonight.

    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 Ramadhaan was not sighted this evening, here in Saudi Arabia, we shall be completing thirty (30) days of Sha'baan (1430 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 starting our taraaweeh prayers tomorrow evening (Friday 21 August 2009) after the 'Ishaa. prayer, in preparation for the first fast of Ramadhaan on Saturday 22 August 2009, inshaa.-Allaah.
