When to Observe Shawwal Waxing (NEW) Crescent ?
The geocentric conjunction (Geocentric New Moon) will occur Inshalla on (Saturday 30 April 2022) at 20:28 UT.
Sighting the new crescent on (Saturday 30 April 2022) and (Sunday 1 May 2022) is shown in the below graphs using the program Accurate Times by Mohammad Odeh according to Odeh criterion. Where:-
- It is impossible to see the crescent from the areas located under the red color. Because either the Moon on this day sets before the Sunset and/or the topocentric conjunction occurs after the Sunset.
- The crescent is expected to be seen by optical aid only from the areas located under the blue color.
- The crescent is expected to be seen by optical aid from the areas located under the magenta color. In these areas the crescent could be seen by naked eye if the atmospheric conditions are superb and the observer is experienced.
- The crescent is expected to be easily visible by naked eye from the areas located under the green color.
- The crescent cannot be seen from uncolored areas, even though the Moon sets in these locations after the Sunset and the topocentric conjunction occurs before the Sunset, but the Moon is not sufficiently illuminated in order to be seen as crescent even by optical aid.
- Kindly notice that the below graph shows the possibility of seeing the crescent from areas between 60 degrees north of Equator down to 60 degrees south of Equator.
According to the Universal Hejric Calendar (UHC), which is based on the calculated crescent visibility, the start of this month in the Eastern Region will be on Monday 02 May 2022 and in the Western Region will be on Monday 02 May 2022. Kindly notice that the UHC is a pre-calculated calendar, which adopts a certain criterion to start the new Hejric month. Your country/organization might adopt different criterion to start the new Hejric month. So it is highly advised to read the UHC website before giving any judgment.
- Results of seeing the crescent, and the first day of the month in different countries will be added here Inshalla as we receive the reports from ICOP's members. If you wish to be a member in ICOP, or to know more about it, kindly click here.

Mr. AlTayyeb AlSahili said: "السماء كانت صافية وفيها بعض الغيوم فقط ومكان تواجد الهلال ( حسب ما نعلمه جيدا بالحسابات الفلكية الدقيقة ) صافية ويعتريها بعض الغيم أحيانا ومع ذلك لم أتمكن من رؤية الهلال لا بالعين المجردة ولا بالمنظار ولو كان اليوم هو 30 رمضان لما خفي الهلال عن أحد في مثل هذه الظروف لأن هلال إكمال العدة لا يخفى عن أحد ويرى بالعين المجردة بكل سهولة لأنه يجب أن يكون سميكا ومرتفعا لا يخفى . ( فما بالك بهلال ابن ليلتين ) وإلا فإن إدخال الشهر باطل لاسـتحالة المشــهود به . والشرع لا يأتي بالمســتحيلات. ففي تبصرة الحكام لابن فرحون اليعمري: «قال أصحابنا: إذا شهد شاهدان في الصَّحْوِ في المِصر الكبير على هلال رمضان ولم يَرَهُ غيرُهما، قال سَحْنونٌ: هما شاهِدا سوءٍ، فإذا قُبِلا فعُدّ ثلاثون يوماً ولم يُرَ الهلالُ والسّماء مُصْحِيَةٌ، قال مالكٌ: هما شاهِدا سوءٍ، لأنّ ذلك قرينةٌ ظاهرةٌ في كذِبهما». فالإمام مالك رحمه الله نصحنا بالتثبت في آخر الشهر فقال : (( إذا كانت ليلة إحدى وثلاثين صحوا ولم يُرَ الهلال لا يجوز الفطر غدا ويجب صومه وتُكَذَّبُ الشهادة على دخول الشهر , لأن هلال إكمال العدة لا يخفى عن أحد )) , أي أنه يرى بكل سهولة . لأنه دائما يكون حجمه كبيرا . وحتى ابن تيمية قال مثل ذلك في مجموع الفتاوى ج: 25 ص: 185 قال : (( فمعرفة الكسوف والخسوف لمن صح حسابه مثل معرفة كل أحد أن ليلة الحادي والثلاثين من الشهر لابد أن يطلع الهلال وإنما يقع الشك ليلة الثلاثين )) . يعني أن هلال إكمال العدة يُرَى ليلة الحادي والثلاثين من الشهر قطعا بلا شك ، ويستحيل خفاؤه ، فلا بد أن يطلع ويرى عند إمام الأئمة مالك وعند ابن تيمية ... وإلا فالشهادة على دخول أول الشهر الحالي باطلة بوجه من الوجوه . . وإكمال الصوم واجب على الجميع في آخر رمضان ... وكذلك قال الإمام العلامة والمجتهد السبكي ..."

On occasions and mainly after the apparent sunset, using a pair of binoculars (7X50), I scanned the horizon. My first binocular sighting of the moon was at 8:30 pm. After 13 minutes, I was able to sight the moon with naked eyes. The horns were approximately at 3:00 and 7:00 O'clock (3:00;5:00;7:00). At 8:58 pm, the crescent was behind a piece of cloud hugging the distant mountains (moonset: 9:20 pm). While in Abingdon, my friends in two groups of one and three also sighted the moon with naked eyes and photographed it in Blacksburg. Three bystanders also sighted the moon along with the latter group. The first sighting in Blacksburg was at 8:41 pm."

When to Observe Ramadan Waning (OLD) Crescent ?
The geocentric conjunction (Geocentric New Moon) will occur Inshalla on (Saturday 30 April 2022) at 20:28 UT.
Sighting the OLD crescent on (Saturday 30 April 2022) and (Friday 29 April 2022) is shown in the below graphs using the program Accurate Times by Mohammad Odeh according to Odeh criterion. Where:-
- It is impossible to see the OLD crescent from the areas located under the red color. Because either the Moon on this day rises after the Sunrise and/or the topocentric conjunction occurs before the Sunrise.
- The crescent is expected to be seen by optical aid only from the areas located under the blue color.
- The crescent is expected to be seen by optical aid from the areas located under the magenta color. In these areas the crescent could be seen by naked eye if the atmospheric conditions are superb and the observer is experienced.
- The crescent is expected to be easily visible by naked eye from the areas located under the green color.
- The crescent cannot be seen from uncolored areas, even though the Moon rises in these locations before the Sunrise and the topocentric conjunction occurs after the Sunrise, but the Moon is not sufficiently illuminated in order to be seen as crescent even by optical aid.
- Kindly notice that the below graph shows the possibility of seeing the crescent from areas between 60 degrees north of Equator down to 60 degrees south of Equator.
