Abstract | ||
The main goal to which we aspire is to reach a unified scientific astronomical criteria in order to determine the possibility of a sighting of the crescent newborn which support by the majority of astronomers and scholars of religion in order to work on the standardization of our events Islamic religious sites, as is the case in determining the beginning of the holy month of Dhul Hijjah, which does not differ by two in the Islamic world. To reach such criteria requires cooperation between the scientific astronomers and the religious scholars in order to narrow the differences and inequalities that often happening. The differences could be two days and in some cases three days. In this study we offer some observations and recommendations on this subject. | ||
