Eid Mubarik!
As salaamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh! The Eid is upon us! Greetings brothers and sisters, we pray that this Ramadan has been beneficial to you all and that Allah has accepted your fasting, Insha’Allah.
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 (1432 A.H.), in accordance with the hadeeth of the Messenger of Allaah (sal-Allaahu `alayhe wa sallam):
((Fast when you see the crescent. If it is obscured to you, then complete thirty days of Sha'baan. And break your fast when you see the crescent. If it is obscured to you then fast thirty days)), [transmitted by al-Bukhaaree and Muslim].
Subsequently, we shall be celebrating 'Eed al-Fitr on Tuesday 30th August 2011, inshaa.-Allaah.
