Eid on Monday—One More Blessed Day of Fasting
Join us for a special Khutbah on Monday
Assalaamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatahu,
The M.E.C.C.A. Center follows the position of the four schools ofSunni Islam, which adhere to the Blessed Sunnah of determining the beginning of each month by the physical sighting of the crescent moon. The last and final Messenger of Allah, the most beloved of Allah, Sayyiduna Muhammad (Allahs blessings and peace be upon him) said: Begin your fast upon sighting [the crescent moon] and end your fast upon sighting [the next crescent]. (Sahih Bukhari &Muslim)
Since there have been numerous negative sightings of the moon in North America, we will fast one more day, and Eid al-Fitr will be on Monday, inshaAllah. [Source: CrescentWatch]
May this extra day of fasting be a means ofeven greater reward, and may Allah accept all of our worship in this blessed month.
Note: Your local mosque may be celebrating Eid on Sunday due to astronomical calculations. You are more than welcome to follow such as thisis also a valid opinion.
