Ramadan 2006
Salaam
The month of Ramadan isnt far off now.....over a month i believe. Whom amongst you have been yearning for this month to arrive?
So, are you excited about Ramadan?
How is it going to be different from last Ramadan....what will you do differently, and in what ways will you try to improve?
Do you manage to keep all fasts? Do you find it easy, or hard?
I personally love the feeling of excitement when the month has started.
How much do you eat in this month compared to other months? you scoff yourself at Iftaari time? Who's going to be cooking....and do you enjoy it?!
do you feel spiritually better off in this month, and how would you carry it on thru the rest of the year?
Who goes all taravih's? :o
or is it a normal month for you, or anything you dislike?
share all thoughts and views and stories, and anything to do with the Month of Ramadan

Yw!
Seems like Eid is already going on in the US-A right now... is there some kind of timing issue I'm not aware of?

i think one of the issues was when people strted their fasts and when people sighted the moon,the people i knw did it yesterday some are doing it today and others are doin it 2moro. my cousins from New York did eid yesterday, what i find strange is countries which are to the east are ahead of us so they would do eid earlier than us, like countries like bdesh but they are doin it 2moro
Dave Tue, 24 Oct 2006 - 14:18

ohhh right, lunar calendar... thanks
You're right about that being strange that's a full 2 day gap... which can't be accounted for with a lunar calendar... maybe it's just local tradition or something.

Traditionally Muslims have gone by sighting of the moon.
But these days Saudi goes by birth of the moon.
The moon is normally visible about 18-24 (or more depending on conditions) hours after the birth, thus giving the chance for their new month to start 2 days before the traditional method of sighting.

im not being funny but whts the difference between the "new moon" and the "birth of the moon"?
You Tue, 24 Oct 2006 - 14:52
Ramadan 2006
'New moon' is when you can see the new moon. The crescent has to be large enough to view.
Birth of a new moon is when it passes between your point and the sun, so that technically it is no longer the old moon. The crescent will be too small to be visible for many many hours.

jazakAllah for that piece of information, so is that why countries like bdesh are doing it 2moro?

Has anyone actually learned anything from this years Ramadan?
Is anyone still on the religious flex/feeling that they implemented this Ramadan?

Nope 😢
Well to be honest with me it comes and goes. If i sit in a gathering of zhikr i'll feel the Ramadan boost again. it depends what mood and company i am in.
