All Dates are subject to the sighting of the
Moon. The Islamic dates are based on expectation of crescent
sighting calculated from the latest available scientific data. You
may plan your schedule with confidence that the crescent will be
sighted as shown. To fulfill Shariah requirements, the World

Qamar dar Akrab: According to ahadeeth, we should refrain
from reciting the Nikah during Qamar dar Akrab (when the moon is
passing throught the phase of Scorpio).
First Crescent: The Islamic month begins with
the visible First Crescent and not with the invisible New Moon. The
First Crescent is usually sighted in the western sky just after
sunset on the first or second evening after the New Moon Phase. The
sighting depends upon the age of the crescent, the time difference
between sunset and moonset, and the angular distance between the sun
and the moon.
Visible Cresent: One shoud not confuse the New
Moon with the visible thin cresent. It should be realised that a
crescent following a lunar month of 30 days will look larger and stay
longer than a crescent following a month of 29 days.
New Moon: The New Moon is defined to be the
moment when the moon is almost directly between the Earth and the
Sun. At this moment, the moon's dark surface faces the Earth. The New
Moon is therefore invisible. The date and time of this invisoble New
Moon is commonly found in almanacs, newspapers and calendars.
