Eid Moon Controversy
By Colonel Syed Riaz Jafri (Retd)
Westridge, Rawalpindi
In order to determine whether the Central Ruet e Hilal Committee was correct or the KP ulema in announcing the sighting of the Eid moon, let’s observe the full moon (14th of moon) when it shall be a perfectly round disc and easily decidable. If it happens to be on the evening of Sunday, the 16th of June, then MaulanaPopalzei is right and if it falls on Monday evening the 17th instant then MessrsFawad Chaudhry and Mufti MuniburRehman would be correct.
Whichever party is proved wrong should not be allowed to make future announcements for the sighting of the new moon.
