Just a short time ago, Fatwa-Online was informed of the official decision and announcement of the High Judiciary Council of Saudi Arabia that since the moon of Shawwaal was sighted this evening, here in Saudi Arabia, we have completed twenty nine (29) days of Ramadhaan (1439 A.H.), in accordance with the hadeeth of the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ:
«Fast when you see the crescent [of Ramadhaan]. If it is obscured to you, then complete thirty days of Sha’baan. And break your fast when you see the crescent [of Shawwaal]. If it is obscured to you then fast thirty days [of Ramadhaan]», [transmitted by al-Bukhaaree and Muslim].
Subsequently, we shall be celebrating ‘Eed al-Fitr tomorrow, Tuesday 4th June 2019, in shaa.-Allaah.
Zakaatul-Fitr is now being collected, at only £2.50 per person. Pay here…
