Thank you Dr. Zakir Naik. You have explained it well. We should follow the moon sight of our locality. Just like the way no one argue why time if swala(namaz) differ from one place to another, the same way the time if Saum and day to start can't be same.

Maa shaa Allah. May Allah swt bless you Dr Zakir

What a beautiful answer

The famous Hanafi scholar Imam Sarkhasi (died 483 A.H.) quotes the narration from Abu Dawud (2333, 2334) that; The Muslims did not begin fasting since they did not see the moon. Then a man, from out of Madinah, came and told the Prophet [s] that he had seen it (the moon). The Prophet [s] asked him if he was a Muslim to which the man answered ‘yes’. The Prophet [s] then said: "Allahu-Akbar! one is enough for all Muslims" The Prophet [s] fasted and asked the people to stop eating and start fasting. [Al-Mabsout 3-52]

You may think so. We may wish so. Now read the comments. Nothing solved The disagreement continues. I am not a student of Dr Naik but in this discussion he makes a very articulate and convincing case for local moonsighting. I happen to find the local moonsighting argument the more convincing one but both points of view raise questions. One factor that affects the discussion is that we have worldwide communication but that in itself is not the deciding factor. It is logical to consider that if we are to follow time zones from far distance then logically, as Doctor Naik explains, that applies to sun times ie the basis of the 24 hour day and in that case we should all commence fasting at the same time. Furthermore the 24 hour day itself is an arbitrary numerical system and for example prayer times are according to natural phenomena which don't depend on clock times. We use those times as aids of convenience. No doubt there are those who disagree and they have brought their fatwas in many comments already posted so need to repeat, I am not here for argumentation. Just one slightly provocative question - in the event that the technology of long distance communication ever failed what would you do? The motions of the universe are governed by Allah. We immediately confound our intellectual capacity when we consider time in relation to motion. Again as Dr Naik alludes to - is it Layla-t-ul Qadr in Malaysia and USA at the "same time" ? Subhana Rabbika Rabbil Izzati amma yasifuun.Allahu Akbar. And Allah know best what we don't know.

Local sighting by definition causes more division because inevitably some areas will see the moon and other areas will not. Then they may argue over who truly saw it or not. Global sighting is by definition united on one day. No debates.

Your argument is very convincing, my question is, when should we observe and fast on the day of Arafaat? 9th of Dhul Hijjah in Makkah on 9th according to local moon sighting?

You are of the opinion that Muslims should rely on local sightings, I'd like to know who decides where local limits start or end? We all are well aware that fasting on Eid day is haraam.

MashAllah very good brother with ref from Quran & Hadiths

Here’s what some scholars said about every Muslim fasting Ibn Taymiyyah: “…a person who learns about the sighting of the moon in good time to be able to utilise it for fasting, for end-ing his fast, or for sacrifice, he must definitely do so. The texts [of Islam] and the reports about the Salaf point to this. To limit this to a certain distance or coun-try would contradict both the reason and the Islamic law.” [Al-Fatawa, volume 5, page 111]

Yes but would you not apply a bit more logic to this, and say this Hadith is regarding people who are in their locality. E.g. if people in the south of the Uk saw the moon, and then later in the day others in the Uk heard about this, then they should act accordingly and break the fast or do the sacrifice. I really don’t see any logic of this working for someone seeing the moon in California , and then straight away people in Japan need to act upon . I think a bit of logic need to be applied.

So how many hours difference exist between continents in terms of time differences since there is just one crescent for earth?

It's only 24 hours difference or less than 24 hours difference between continents...

While Mecca is ahead of time like 6hours difference with some areas of America and Holulus in America is almost a day difference with Mecca.

Lol , its not about a day difference . Its about moon rotation . Moon and sun rotation are completely different .

If July 31 is a Friday in Saudi Arabia, then July 31 in the United States will be Friday, although there is a time difference; Similarly, If the date of Dhū al-Ḥijjah 10 is 'Yawm al-Jumu‘ah' in Saudi Arabia, then Dhū al-Ḥijjah 10 will be Yawm al-Jumu‘ah in the United States, despite the time difference. This means that even though Americans fall asleep during Friday prayers in Saudi Arabia, they still pray Friday prayers on the same day. Only one day can be marked against a date in the calendar, and it would be unreasonable and impractical to use a calendar that shows one day in the US and another day in Saudi Arabia towards a date. The question that many ask is, whether to fast on the day of Arafat or on the 9th day of Dhū al-Ḥijjah. The question itself is unfounded because the day of Dhū al-Ḥijjah 9 in US should not be different from the day of Dhū al-Ḥijjah 9 in Saudi Arabia.

Masha'Allah good questions it needs an answer

Today I have to disagree with Dr Saab about expressing some experts opinion that sighting may differ for 4 days also. The rotation of Moon around the Earth is very perfect so if at one longitude when the sunlit area of the Moon after no Moon night (amawas in India) begins, new moon may not be visible but at later longitudes ie in some other country, after few hours it becomes visible & definitely it will be visible on the next evening at the first longitude we started. The Moon"s speed around the Earth does not vary at all. The differences in moon sighting observations is only dependent on the scattered lighting in the sky near the ground or clouding. Thus maximum difference scientifically cannot be more than one day due to the position of no moon night & another day because of the starting point of new Moon.

Assalam alaikum. So, any of the people in the comments section tell me how do they define the boundaries in moon sightings? If you cannot bring a single daleel on this, then accept that you are wrong. What you blindly follow is sectarianism because of which there are 2, 3 Eid celebrations in some places. It's ridiculous that in my place people doesn't accept the moon sightings news from Srilanka which is 150KMs away but they accept it when it comes from Chennai or Delhi which are 500KM and 2600KM away respectively.

Ok if that’s the case and people have to look for their own lunar dates with respect to their specific region then what would be the exact time for LailatulQadar? Every Muslim will experience this night on different day and time but doesn’t that night have specific timings? Angels comes on earth on this blessed night would they be coming for two probably three nights since people have difference in lunar dates? Similarly Hajj is performed on 10th of Zilhajj but if we follow our own lunar dates then hajj is next to the day of actual hajj that doesn’t make sense, hajj is performed once on specific time and date everyone follows, and what about the day of Ashoorawhat would be the exact day to fast would this day again be different for everyone? i am confused if any one can help answer my question

If one legitimate person sighted the moon and.makes aware of sighting.. then scholars should consider that sighting and accept the man's sighting... but the different schools of thought are with pride and stupidity that they wanna sight regionally.... there's one moon I'f it's sighted after maghrib then the other countries maghrib the next day then it's the only start of their calendar

When you pray in your country, you follow the times accordingly to your locality, so no reason to follow some who can testify from a different part.

Which scholar brother?

No dr. Naik, if that was only case then how would people fast in norway when the sun doesnt rise for 06 minths? That means if you say they should follow their neighbouring country then the same applies for day of arafat too that we follow the only day of arafat for siyam.. following neighbouring country and that following its another neighbouring country..

*Is one sighting of the new crescent sufficient for the whole Muslim Ummah, or should each region depend on their own sighting?* Most Muslim jurists have adopted the opinion that any sighting of the new crescent, anywhere in the world, is considered valid and acceptable for determining the beginning and end of the month of Ramadaan. These jurists include: Imaam Abu Haneefah, Imaam Maalik and Imaam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal. In other words, if the new crescent is seen anywhere in the world, it becomes obligatory for all Muslims to begin fasting, as the Prophet ﷺ said, "Fast after you have seen it [the new crescent] and end the fast [at the end of the month] when you see it." This hadîth is a general address directed to the whole Muslim Ummah. That is, if anyone sees the new crescent in any place, then this will be a valid sighting for all Muslims. The sayings of the Muslim jurists regarding this matter: (From the book Al-Fiqh-u-lislaamy-wa'delatah By Dr. Whbah Az-Zuhayli vol.2, p. 606) The Hanaafi Scholars said 1 : "The difference of the moon sighting localities, and sighting the moon during the daytime whether before midday or after it are not considered in terms of determining the beginning or the end of the month. This is in accordance with the preponderant opinion in the Hanaafi School. It is also the opinion viewed by most of the Hanaafi scholars, and it is also the opinion followed in giving fatwas. Therefore, the people of the east are duty bound to follow the new moon sighting of the people of the west if it is proved that they have sighted the moon in a sound and binding way, such as when two men bear witness that they have sighted the new moon, or if they testify to the judgment of the Judge, or if the news of the sighting of the moon becomes well-known to everyone. This does not apply to the case when one reports that the people of such and such city have sighted the new moon, for this is considered a reported speech. The Maaliki scholars said 2 : "If the crescent is sighted somewhere, people should fast everywhere, whether they live close or far away. People are not to consider in this regard the distance required for shortening the prayer nor the unity in sighting localities or its non-existence. Hence, fasting is obligatory for everyone who is informed about the sighting of the crescent if this sighting is reported by two reliable witnesses or a big group of people. The Hanbali scholars said 3 : "If the crescent has been sighted in a certain locality, be it near or far, all the people are obligated to fast. The ruling of the one who has not sighted the crescent is the same as that of the one who has sighted it. Is one sighting of the new crescent sufficient for the whole Muslim Ummah, or should each region depend on their own sighting? Most Muslim jurists have adopted the opinion that any sighting of the crescent moon, anywhere in the world, is considered valid and acceptable for determining the beginning and end of the month of Ramadaan. These jurists include: the Hanafis, Maalikis, and Hanbalis. In other words, if the crescent moon is seen anywhere in the world, it becomes obligatory for all Muslims to begin fasting, as the Prophet ﷺ said, "Fast after you have seen it [the crescent moon] and end the fast [at the end of the month] when you see it." This hadîth is a general address directed to the whole Muslim Ummah. That is, if anyone sees the new crescent in any place, then this will be a valid sighting for all Muslims. However Imaam Shaafi'i said that each locality should have their own sighting, and they are not obligated to adopt the sighting of another location. He used the following as evidence: Once one of the companions, Kuraib narrated that Um Ul-Fadl has sent him to visit Muaa'wia in As-Shaam (Syria). He said: 'I went to As-Shaam and accomplished the purpose of my visit, and while I was there, Ramadaan started; I had seen the crescent moon on Thursday night, and then went back to Madinah at the end of the month. Ibn Abbaas mentioned the crescent moon asking, 'When did you see the crescent moon?' I replied: 'We saw it on Thursday night.' Ibn Abbaas then asked: 'Kuraib, did you see it?' I answered: 'Yes! And the people had seen it, and they fasted, and so did Muaa'wia.' So Ibn Abbaas said: 'But we had seen it Friday night, so we will fast until we complete thirty days or until we see the crescent moon. I then asked: 'Aren't you satisfied with Muaa'wia's sighting and his fasting?' Ibn Abbaas answered: 'No, this is what the Messenger of Allaah had ordered us to do. [Recorded by Imaam Muslim, and others] Notice from this previous hadeeth , that Kuraib arrived to Madinah at the very end of the month of Ramadaan. This is important because Ibn Abbass and the Muslims in Madinah didn't have the knowledge of Mu'awia's sighting, and therefore, they had no choice but to continue their fast based on their own sightings. However, in today's society, communication is highly advanced and fast. News of sightings in any place in the world can reach us before fajr time, right before we begin our fast. Nobody can claim today that had Ibn Abbass been informed of a sighting before fajr that he would not have followed it and fasted along with the people of As-Shaam. With that said, this previous hadeeth is not applicable to today's society, because rapid communication did not exist at that time as it does today. The followers of Imaam Shaafi'I further specified the exact distance between locations saying: If the crescent is seen in a certain place, then the areas within this region are obliged to accept this sighting, however, the places outside of this region are not obliged. Anyone who lives within an area spanning 133.056 km from the original sighting location is obliged to follow that area's sighting. This distance was calculated by multiplying twenty-four units of distance by 5544 meters, which is the equivalent of 133.056 km. In other words, all those who live within this 133 km span, are required to follow the sighting. After hearing this information about determining the beginning and ending of Ramadaan, we ask Allaah ﷻ to give us the health, strength, and Imaan to take advantage of the opportunities to worship during the month of Ramadaan and that He accept all of our righteous deeds. Ameen . I ask Allaah ﷻ to protect us against the misdoings and bestow unto us sincerity in speech and action. Aameen

But then that means there are multple laylatul qadr nights which doesnt make sense

That is why it is recommended to do good deeds on each of the last ten nights of Ramadan so we can achieve the Night of Qadr.

is eid always on full moon

Stupidity at its extremity. If July 31 is a Friday in Saudi Arabia, then July 31 in the United States will also be a Friday, despite the time difference between the two countries. Similarly, If the 10th of Dhū al-Ḥijjah is Yawm al-Jumu'ah in Saudi Arabia, then the 10th of Dhū al-Ḥijjah will be Yawm al-Jumu'ah in the United States as well, regardless of the time difference. This means that even though Americans may be asleep during Friday prayers in Saudi Arabia, they still observe Friday prayers on the same Islamic day. It would be unreasonable and impractical to use a calendar that displays one day in the US and another day in Saudi Arabia for the same date. The purpose of observing the hilal (crescent moon) is to determine the beginning of a lunar month, NOT to establish the starting point of a solar day. If the hilal is visible in the United States, the new lunar month should commence for all, including Mecca. If the Hijri date represents a lunar day, then only we need to bother about visibility lines and worry about how Far East/west/north/south we can expand etc. No need to complicate the calendar by limiting the Hijri date to political borders. If you understand that a date is a figure to denote a day, then you need to find whether it is a solar day or a lunar day. Islamic dates are solar days, fasting starts at dawn(Fair), fasting ends at sunset(Magrib), and prayer times are arranged based on the sun's position. The role of the crescent is to find the solar day. Nobody is demanding to unite Eid prayer time but demanding to unite Eid day. Time is based on the sun’s position. Eid prayer time will be different from location to location. The Hilal may not be visible all over a state or all over a county. Only reports of the Hilal are enough to start the month. Sometimes, we cannot see the Hilal all over the country, earlier each city had separate dates due to a lack of communication and travel facilities, now we expanded from city to state, state to country, and country to continent

These discussions are so tedious. "Which of the favours of your lord will you deny?" There is no doubt that one of the greatest gifts to mankind is our ability to "reason", which resulted in Islam's push for improving ourselves through education and scholarly works. This led to some of the greatest discoveries for mankind...again All favours of Allah... yet we deny. Use his favours, His gifts and we WILL have unity, well at least with the moon sightings... this would do away with the local vs Makkah argument and weather or not we see the moon. It astounds me that our educated scholars continue to debate something as trivial as this. Picking and choosing the Sunnah... Prophet used camels to travel around, Prophet carried a long staff, the prophet did many things due to the time and conditions... Do you really believe that the Prophet would not have used Allah's gifts to help unite his ummah. Through Islam and its contributions to the sciences we know the exact position, exact time,, exact phase of the moon for the next millennia and yet we squabble ... Sad times indeed.

Follow local moonsighting as per the Sunnah and blindly follow the Saudis.

That difference in moons appearance don’t have a difference more than 24 hours so technically all muslims should fast on same day It’s just a matter of few hour difference with a maximum of 24 hours

This is the only Q/A by Dr Zakir which I found that he is not correct in his explanations according to astronomy. How come we can see moon in Srilanka and perform Eid/ Fast but we dont see moon in india and we dont fast/ celebrate Eid? These countries are in same longitude. There are many examples like Malysia, China, Phillipines, Bangladesh they differ though they are to the east of Makkah and should see the moon. Disappointed!!

Moon grow older towards the west, so it is normal the chances to spot be on west much than east. His explanation seems so far ok.

Sorry brother as per this issue by Dr Zakir Naik Muslim never becomes a Globalised I am still worry about one caliphate of Islam in current world.

He is confusing people with time and day. The Muslims pray Jumua prayers at different times but all pray Jumua prayers on the same day.(yawm al Jumua). Jumua is the weekly Eid of Muslims, if weakly Eid is over on the earth in 24 hours why does the annual Eid end up in multiple days(24 to 72 hours?

we already sent a letter to zakir naik to debate challenge. but he still didn't respond to us. according to quran and sunnah zakir naik is not a muslim. he is misguiding ummath. prophet said "my ummath will be become 73 sects. 72 sects will go to hell and only one jamath will go to heaven" all 73 sects are ummath of prophet but not muslims they are mushrik (read quran 30:31,32). muslims are the one jamath which only go to heaven. prophet said to "join with jamaathul muslimeen and there imaam" (buhari,muslim)

Ashfaaq Reshard please keep ur personal opinions to your self. You are not a scholar, and only Allah knows who is a true Muslim. So ur statement itself shows that u deeply lack knowledge and wisdom and u r not in any position to say who is Muslim and who is not. Further more, Zakir Naik always says he is just Muslim and does not label himself as part of any sect.
