The possibility of seeing the crescent of Eid

And the hadith continued: “And when the month is missing (29 days) in the calendar of Umm al-Qura, as in the current Ramadan,

No one knows for sure that the month will actually have 29 or 30 days.

As the definitive astronomical calculations in the Umm Al-Qura calendar, which require the occurrence of the conjunction and the birth of the crescent to enter the month, and its setting shortly after sunset on the 29th of the month, these conditions do not necessarily mean that the month is incomplete.

As in this case (the case of decreasing the month), the field visualization process is activated, and if the crescent was seen, then the astronomical calculation coincided with the legal vision, so the month would be deficient.

Seeing the crescent is not possible

Al-Misnad stressed that the crescent moon is on the horizon on the evening of the 29th of Ramadan, and it will stay about 24 minutes after sunset.

According to the skyline of Makkah, and if it is not seen because of clouds, dust, or the like, then the month is completed according to the Sharia, and it is 30 days.
