Welcome To Wifaqul Ulama
Our Aim is to guide the Muslim Ummah on the Siraat e Mustaqeem, the right path, and propagate the truth and Haq to the Muslim Ummah. We aim to propagate and bring back those great Sunnats of Our beloved Nabi Sallallahu alaihi Wassalam into the lives of the Believer, which the Muslims of today have forgotten and neglected. Moonsighting, being one of them. In these very difficult times, the Ummah is in need of guidance, we sincerely hope with the help of Allah to provide that. May Allah Grant our organisation the Ikhlass, the Zeal to work for the Ummah.

Monthly Calendar Sha'ban 1431
Attached Calendar for the Month of Sha'ban 1431.
Many of us attempted a sighting from various locations in the UK, there were some clear patches but mainly cloudy in most
places so we were not able to observe the Hilal. However we have received positive sighting reports (Muhaqaq Ru'yat e Basri)
from many places in South Africa. We therefore had 29 days of Rajab and the 1st day of Sha'ban 1431 will be from Tuesday
13th July 2010 Insha Allah.
Saudi Arabia had 30 days of Rajab and have also commenced the Month of Sha'ban from Tuesday 13th July
2010 based on the pre calculated Umm ul Qura Calendar.
