Crescent Controversy-2
In my letter Crescent Controversy of 22 July 2020 delving upon the
controversy of Sighting the Moon by Science against Scriptures, I had suggested
a simple solution to decide the issue by examining the 14th of the
moon on the date it falls. If the full moon, which is always a perfect round
disk and can easily and decisively be seen by the naked eye, falls on the
3rd of August then the Minister of Science and Technology
would be correct, and if it falls on the 4th of August then
the Chairman Ruet e Hilal Committee would be right.
Ladies and Gentlemen, please do look for the full moon on the 3rd
as well as 4th of August to decide for yourself as to who was
correct in announcing the date of the sighting of the new moon.
Col. Syed Riaz Jafri (Retd)
