Hot/"ramadan" Answer
-
Peace all,
I agree...that's the only and easiest way for people all around the world, space and time, (even those stranded in farida's island) to have understanding of time frames without the use of any technical instrument for measuring.
Peace Rev..
If the earth and moon are slowing down by a fraction of second every year , the this would be insignificant in a human life and still a year between two solstices will be fixed within this same humain life or even the whole human civilisation.
As Br.Ayman said in one of hiw posts, the time frame between 2 summer solstices has always been equal to a year , and will still be , in a million years from now. whether this year is 365.2xxx , 360,9xxx or 150,8xxx days.Salam
I agree, moreover Rev , As the civilization has progressed to a level where we have managed to discover the info regarding slowing down of orbits by a second, He in his infinite wisdom knew, that by then we will be able to make "week , hour seconds , nanoseconds etc, and use them. Does he restrict us to using his timing devices only?

Of course we have the ability to add a leap second or leap day here and there to adjust our man-made time keeping to fit in with the "natural" time on the Earth, but it does change our calculations of events in history or the future.

Peace Ayman,
As you found out, the starting date of the new era has nothing to do with the supposed date of the Hijra. The Hijri era month 1 actually started about 56 days earlier. So the start date of this new era is a big lie that in reality has nothing to do with the event it claims to be based on. Had month 1 been based on the actual supposed date of Hijra or the closest new moon to it, then the entire era would have been pushed 2 months and this year's Ramadan would be in two months.
Moreover, your entire calculation is erroneous because it ignores that according to the same sectarian sources that you used to conjecture the dates of the various events, the intercalary month was abolished in the year when the prophet died. If you factor this then the 26 Safar date would occur about 89 days (three lunar months) earlier and your dates will be off. So you are essentially implying that the prophet always fasted on the wrong dates.
Again it is an indisputable fact that the present so-called Ramadan is 100% arbitrary and it depends on when some guy decided the era was to start and with which month it started and on the 100% manmade order of the months.
Yet you completely ignore the sun as if 105 didn't mention it. This also results in you completely ignoring 1712 as if the verse didn't exist.
Impossible (full-moon is affecting your mind), without the sun there cannot be moon phases.
Muslim calendar started 1st month Muharram in 622 CE
Hijrah event was in the 3rd month Safar that same year- Cannot fast a full-moon
- Cannot tell a full-moon from a 98% full-moon
- Cannot apply full-moon illusion
- Hunting restriction swings by a month from June 21 to July 20
- Widows wait different time lengths depending on date of event
- Men fast different time lengths for same offense depending on date of event
- The blind, those with poor vision, and those living in cloudy weather cannot fast
- No mention using full-moon calendars and denies all prior lunar new crescent calendars
- Denies history only 10 years after events
PERF 558, basic logic, and history completely destroys the full-moon fantasy.

In the past we used to get responses in support of Ayman from the eloquent ones now it?s been switched to a different category. yeah
Farida , peace
Ya. yeah ,, Most definitely that calls for an alarm on your end that even the beginners have started to digest it with a relative ease.
But As HE said, It would never penetrate, where the hearts are sealed , and ears are locked. because they would always follow what their elders followed, what their preachers preached, but do ponder , what if they were wrong?

Yes, but when Ayman said that the summer solstice is in june 21th, they accused him of using man made calendar to apply god's timing system. I see no evil at using weeks, hours, minutes and seconds in our practical daily life, although they have no basis in the quran. But the evil will be ignoring God's timing system for the religious duties. That's the main point.

Yes I understand. But the only time most people understand is our man-made, inaccurate calenders and time keeping. Time is relevant to where you are and how fast you are travelling. So there can never be an accurate fixed time

Sorry, Siki... I might not be understanding you correctly, but when I say "Month", I don't mean the conventional Gregorian month or any other organized month for that matter. I'm just using a generalized one-word term for "Shahar", which basically seems to me as the time frame between 2 consecutive same moon phases, used in the same sense as 936. Not attributing a fixed number to them. It's a count from one marker to the other, right?
When God uses the term shahar, He wants us to wait, and then take reference from his marker to start, Not , that we start next day what ever moon shape we see till it returns.
Because next day we might not find the moon. What if it is the thinnest waxing crescent,and is not visible , or may be he does not want us to stay awake whole night, looking for it, if it is the thinnest waning crescent, which only has a very small visibility just before dawn.Nor does he want us to count more than Ayaam ul Madoodat (a few days which could be easily remembered and tracked on both hands fingers) , because people were uneducated and could mess up the count.
He had to recommend something which could not be missed, so that one could see it, start, forget about the count , continue the practice, and finish when one saw the same bright marker again.
I hope this helps.

Br. Siki,
We're probably on the same track but I think there still might be a communication gap. Let me try and break this down. Your understanding is,
1 - "Shahar" = Full Moon.
2 - 936 mentions 12 Full Moons.
3 - 1 Shahar is the time between 2 Full Moons.Am I correct?

i'll try to answer your 9 points as of my understanding after reading this thread
1- but you cannot either have witnessed (past tense ) the hole "month" and then fast it.
2- yes but the main point is not witnessing all the "almost full moons" , it's about witnessing the first one that rises after sunset (even if it is only 95% full moon). then you fast until the crescent phase (max 10 days).3- i think point 2 answers this ...
4- Not only swings , but it is also very different for both hemispheres. But one thing is a fact the wildlife follows a lunar-seasons system. you cannot ignore that.5- what do you think is the purpose for widows to wait?? isn't for making sure that they're not pregnant if they decide to marry again ?? that seems logical for me that they don't wait the same time depending on their menstruating cycle. because as we all know, the menstruating event alters chances of pregnancy.
6- It's not true !!! Men fast exactly the same time frame between Two consecutive "shahrayn" . if a man do the offense, so he must wait until he sees the full moon , then start fastin until the next full moon . All the Men fast the same time length !!!!!!!!!!! A B C ...easy like 1 2 3 ...
7- in my understanding, the arabic word "shahida" doesn't strictly means "witness by sight". It also means to attend/to be present at. (i.e the olympic stadium "shahida" a great game) (i.e n?2, this forum is "yash'hado" a great debate about ramadan issue). So if the blind person is not living alone in farida's lost island, he will probably know by someone else that the moon is "full" tonight.
8- i'll be pleased to comment this point if i first understand what you mean by it.
9- History may deny the full moon theory, but not the 8 points above.

3 - 1 Shahar is the time between 2 Full Moons.Am I correct?
1 - Yes, "shahar" seems to mean "full moon".
2- Yes, 936 told us to count EXACTLY 12 "full moons" every year. And as the year is solar dependant (the only definition of the year that fits the quran is the year is the time frame between 2 shortest/longest day/night, i.e summer solstices or winter solstices). So a "solar" year must contain only 12 full moons, yhe occasional 13 th full moon must be skipped.
3- No, 1 "humain month" is the time between 2 full moons. like a ''humain hour" is the time frame that last 60 " humain minutes" or 3600 "humain seconds". No quranic basis for humain "month" ,"hour" "minutes" nor "seconds"Salam

THAT'S THE WORD SHA HI DA not BA SHO RO... Everyone here can make SHAHADA to The God.. So everyone here can SHA HI DA shahru romadhona without actually seen it and fast...

A "humain month", (like humain hour , minutes, seconds, etc..) are man made tools for timing humain life matters and not religious ones. The only timing devices that have basis in the quran are the day (yawm), the night (layl), the moon phases including it's more obvious state (the full moon = shahr) and the years (sanat or 3am). Also there are the words (7awl = Cycle) . a humain month it's the time frame believed to be as "shahr". But when you realize that "shahr" means "full moon" you'll start understanding

Peace everyone,
Quickduck welcome to the forum. welcome
Sharp welcome back to the forum. welcome Please excuse quickduck's spelling; he meant "human month".
In addition to what quickduck said, "shahr" cannot mean the interval between two nearly full moons because of the following reasons
-
According to 936 the count of shahr is 12. Sharp, please take any set of solar years and try to count 12 lunar cycles every year. You will be surprised to see that the count of lunar cycles is 11 for two consecutive solar years and is 12 in the third solar year. You will not be able to count at least 12 lunar cycles every solar year. On the other hand you will always be able to count 12 nearly full moons every single solar year. Therefore "shahr" cannot mean lunar cycle or interval between two nearly full moons but can only mean nearly full moon.
-
We are asked to witness the "shahr" then fast it. It is "witnessed" in the past tense in 2185. The entire lunar cycle can only be witnessed after it has completed. But then how can you fast a period after you have witnessed it? Unless you invent a time machine that will be impossible. Therefore we are not being asked to witness a lunar cycle which is a time frame but we are being asked to witness a marker to start the abstinence.
-
We are asked to abstain for a few days and complete the count. That statement will make sense only if "shahr" is a marker. We are supposed to witness the marker to start the abstinence and then complete the count. If "shahr" meant the interval between two nearly full moons, then saying "complete the count" would be redundant because the lunar cycle already has the full information about the count of abstinence.
-
Shahr has been used in the same way as a woman's period in the relevant signs. The women use their period as a marker to start the interim. If a menstruating woman waits for three periods that time interval will be similar to waiting for three nearly full moons i.e. both will be almost two lunar cycles plus the time before the first period or the first nearly full moon. If "shahr" means the interval between two nearly full moons, then the interim of the post menopausal woman will be one lunar cycle more than that of a menstruating woman which does not make any sense.
-
We are told that the great reading was descended in a single night of qadr. Then we are told that the great reading was descended in shahr ramadhan. Therefore shahr can only mean nearly full moon because if it meant lunar cycle that would contradict with the sign saying that the great reading was descended in the night of qadr.
The reason I keep saying that "shahr" means "nearly full moon" is because technically the moon is never completely full. The moon can only be completely full when the sun, the earth, and the moon are aligned at 180 degrees or in a straight line. This occurs only once in 173 days as explained in one of my previous posts. When that happens, the moon is in the shadow of the earth in a lunar eclipse and is therefore not visible. The so-called full moon which is visible every lunar month is not usually aligned with the sun and the earth at 180 degrees but is slightly above the plane at less than 180 degrees and is therefore "nearly full moon". The classical dictionary meaning also mentions that shahr can mean the moon which is nearly full. Razor sharp precise terminology by the god which should increase your faith even further. Had the great reading used a word meaning "completely full moon", that would have contradicted the known scientific fact and the reality that moon can never be full, thereby disqualifying the great reading as the god's word!!!!
