Moon Sighting

Hadith on Importance of Moon sighting

‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar RadhiAllahu ‘anhu narrated that the Prophet Muhammad Sallallaho Alaehe Wassallam said, “Do not fast till you have sighted it (the new moon) and do not break it till you have sighted it, except when the sky is cloudy for you, and if it is so, then calculate it.” [Bukhari, Muslim]

Dua For Sighting the New Moon

اللَّهُمَّ أَهِلَّهُ عَلَيْنَا بِالْيُمْنِ وَالْإِيمَانِ وَالسَّلَامَةِ وَالْإِسْلَامِ

وَالتَّوْفِيقِ لِمَا تُحِبُّ وَتَرْضَى رَبِّي وَرَبُّكَ اللَّهُ
