Ramadan Announcement by the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA):
First day of Ramadan will be Friday, July 20, 2012
and Eid ul-Fitr on Sunday, August 19, insha'Allah.
"O you who believe, fasting is prescribed to you as it was
prescribedto those before you, that you may (learn) self-restraint."
Qur'an 2:183
The Fiqh Council of North America recognizes astronomical calculation
as an acceptable Shar'i method for determining the beginning of lunar
months including the months of Ramadan and Shawwal. FCNA uses Makkah
al-Mukarrama as a conventional point and takes the position that the
conjunction must takeplace before sunset in Makkah and moon must set
after sunset in Makkah.
On the basis of this method the dates of Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr for
the year 1433 AH are established as follows:
1st of Ramadan will be onFriday, July 20, 2012
1st of Shawwal will be on Sunday, August 19, 2012
Ramadan 1433 AH:
The Astronomical New Moon is on July 19, 2011 (Thursday) at 4:24
Universal Time (7:24 a.m. Makkah time). Sunset at Makkah on July 19 is
at 7:05 p.m., while moonset is at 7:11 p.m. Moon is born before sunset
in Makkah and moonset is after sunset. Therefore first day of Ramadan
is Friday, July 20, insha'Allah.First Tarawih prayer will be on
Thursday night.
Eid al-Fitr 1433 AH:
The Astronomical New Moon is on August 17, 2011 (Friday) at 15:54
Universal Time (6:54 p.m. Makkah time). On Friday, August 17, sunset
at Makkah is 6:49 p.m. and moonset is 6:30 p.m. Moon is born after
sunset in Makkah and moon sets before sunset. On Saturday, August 18,
sunset at Makkah is 6:49 p.m. and moonset is at 7:11 p.m. Moon is born
24hours before sunset, whilemoonset is after sunset. Therefore, first
day of Shawwal, i.e., Eid al-Fitr is Sunday, August 19, insha'Allah.
May Allah (swt) keep us on the right path, and accept our fasting and
prayers. Ameen.

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*
-
Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
