Do you want to make sure that you are celebrating the night of the 15th of Sha’baan on the correct date?

If you want to benefit from the correct date of 15th of Sha’baan then I am afraid following the Hizb ul Ulama calendar is not an option. Why not ask yourself this very important question based on logic and common sense: Why is there a difference of TWO whole days between Hizb ul Ulama declared month of Sha’baan and beginning of Sha’baan in India. As we are fully aware that the official Hilal committees of India only declare the new month after actual sighting. Is somebody from Hizb ul Ulama going to claim that the Hilal ‘claimed to be seen by Hizb ul Ulama’ in Saudi Arabia was invisible to the billions of Muslims in the Indian subcontinent?

A detailed account of the Moonsighting issue in the UK by Majlisul Ulama of South Africa (Mufti AS Desai)

We have been informed that Hizb ul Ulama are distributing leaflets of the response of Majlisul Ulama of South Africa (Mufti AS Desai), through Masajid and individuals that normally claim "that this is an Ulama issue, we do not want to get involved". The reality is that the leaflets being distributed are based on a 'Half baked' question sent by Molvi Yaqub Miftahi of Hizb ul Ulama. After being advised of the truth Hadhrat Mufti Saheb printed and publicised this response in his latest Majlis issue, I do hope that the Masajid and individuals who distributed and displayed the leaflet based on MISINFORMATION supplied by the Hizb ul Ulama, now have the sincerity to distribute the TRUTH...Do remember 'Allah is ever an all watcher over you' Al Qur'aan Surah Al Nisaa verse 1
