*********************************************************
Ramadan 1425 CE for North America (USA and Canada) [along with most of the
countries in the Northern Hemisphere] is expected (most probable) to start
from the Day of Sat 16 Oct 2004 CE, with easy sighting of the Hilal on the
previous evening of Fri 15 Oct 2004 CE, inshallah.
The Hilal may be sighted, "VERY DIFFICULT", in south-west of USA on the
evening of Thu 14 Oct 2004 CE, in which case Ramadan, for USA and Canada,
would start on the day of Fri 15 Oct 2004 CE (low probability).
The Hilal will NOT be seen in any other country (other than USA/Canada) on
the evening of Thu 14 Oct 2004 CE hence it is IMPOSSIBLE for Ramadan to
start on Fri 15 Oct 2004 CE in the other countries (other than USA/Canada).
Please look at updates on these webpages and elsewhere for the latest
information.
Please note that any Solar Eclipse occuring on the same date as an
Astronomical New Moon date does NOT automatically imply that a Hilal will
not be seen on that evening. (There is a partial Solar Eclipse on Thu 14 Oct
2004 CE. Click here for Detailed Map of this eclipse.)
The cross-reference between the Gregorian and the Islamic dates (MOST
PROBABLE) is as follows: (IF Ramadan starts a day earlier for USA/Canada,
SHIFT the Islamic dates to the LEFT by ONE day. This possible shift is ONLY
for USA/Canada. EID-ul-FITR remains on Sun 14 Nov 2004, inshallah.)
