        I counted the 13th month as number 1 the start of Shahru Ramadan, and fasting is always in June, If you miss the 13th month out completely, which is not what I am understanding anyway, we will keep going backwards.

          Salaam Ayman,

          Some of the links on the Quran 4 Peace website is no longer clickable.

          Peace and sorry for the delayed reply. The equinoxes will only give you the count of half a year and not a year as per 1712.

          In years where you get 13 full-moons between summer solstices, you simply ignore the 13th moon and skip counting it and count only 12 as per 936. This realigns the year so that the first full-moon is always the one after the summer solstice.

          Peace and best regards,

          Ayman

            Ayman

            Ayman seems to say that number of full moons is never 13 as per 936. But God is not saying that. What God is saying as per 936 is that number of full moons is 12 just like He is saying as per 2258 that God brings the sun from the east.

            Does the fact that God brings the sun from the east mean that He brings only the sun from the east? Does He not bring from the east the full moons as well?

            The claim that number of full moons is only 12 belongs to the supporters of the 12-moon lunar YEAR, and the claim is false. God's truth is that you cannot make a YEAR from - the full moons.

                  Peace, dear Noon.

                  Without diacritical marks
                  in 936 is the same as
                  in 23112.
                  I mention this because you consider it important.

                  As for the years where you get 13 full moons between summer solstices,
                  man has to take it as it is and live the 13th full moon as it is.

                  Man cannot postpone it or skip it as he has no means.

                  God has placed it where it is,
                  and there it stays
                  no matter what man petends to do.

                  The earth makes 1 complete revolution around the sun every 365 plus days,
                  and that is what makes the YEAR.
                  The year does not depend on the 12/13 revolutions of the moon around the earth.

                  The solar year is related to full moons (105), yes
                  but it is not open to man's playing with it.

                  Full moons do need man's skipping or postponing them in order to fit the year.

                    False. For example the former has the ta marbuta at the end.

                      False. For example the former has the ta marbuta at the end.

                      Yes. I noticed that after I had posted my reply;
                      thank you for correcting the error.

                      However, what I said in my reply still counts
                      from the expression "As for the years..."
                      to the end of the expression "Full moons do NOT need man's skipping or postponing them in order to fit the year."

                      This is also my response to Noon's following post.

                            A, B, C are not a year;
                            they are each a series of full moons between summer solstices;
                            and each one of them begins on Shahr Ramadan (Scorching).

                            The year begins on June 21, when the longest daytime is lived.

                            The first 4 full moons of each series
                            are arba?AAtun hurum (936), restricted four, as hunting is restricted in them.

                            If you want to avoid the restriction,
                            you postpone the last non-restricted full moon of a series, e.g. Jun 17, 2019
                            and live it in place of the following first restricted full moon, e.g. July 17, 2019
                            or you postpone Jun 05, 2020 and live it in place of July 05, 2020.

                                  ... The equinoxes will only give you the count of half a year and not a year as per 1712.

                                  In years where you get 13 full-moons between summer solstices, you simply ignore the 13th moon and skip counting it and count only 12 as per 936. This realigns the year so that the first full-moon is always the one after the summer solstice.

                                  Peace and best regards,

                                  Ayman

                                  What realigns the year is not full moons but man's choice of the day when the year should start.
                                  For example the Christians who drew up their calendar have chosen Jesus Christ's birthday,
                                  so muslims may choose the day when Prophet Muhammed migrated from Medina.
                                  This is none of the business of the full moons because the year is not made up of full moons but months.

                                  Full moons and months are different things.

                                  The following are not months;
                                  they are each a 12/13-full moon series between summer solstices

                                  --------1----------2-----3-------4-------5-------6-------7------8------9------10------11-----12-----13---

                                  The 13th full moon of June 17, 2019 takes place in the series before summer solstice 2019
                                  because it rises BEFORE summer solstice 2019.

                                  The 12th full moon of June 05, 2020 takes place in the series before summer solstice 2020
                                  because it rises BEFORE summer solstice 2020.

                                  God has decided their place, so they stay where they are;
                                  all which man has to do is abide by God's decision.

                                  Man has no power, anyways, to postpone a full moon;
                                  neither does he have any power to skip counting it.
                                  Each full moon stays in the series where it belongs to and man lives it during its due time.

                                  The number of full moons in series A is 13,
                                  and the number of full moon in series B is 12;
                                  This is God's truth, and man will acept it.

                                    Salam,

                                    I would like to add a comment on this 12 or 13 months issue.

                                    The Quran is very clear in 936, that the "count of the months with God are 12 months".

                                    This verse is what has caused a tailspin with the Sunni/Shia calendar causing them to chop-off the 13th months which used to be inserted to stabilize the year (although the Qur'an states that they were guilty of manipulation by inserting the 13th year every other year - when it should have been nearly every 3rd year).

                                    As has been pointed out in this thread, the "month" is a full cycle of the moon - lasting 29-30 days, and is not the sighting of the crescent or the full moon.

                                    As such, the statement in 936 becomes very clear the 12 months in 1 year are a factual statement, as there can NEVER be 13 full cycles in 1-year (383 days), further defining to us that the length of the Quran's count of the year, using full months, cannot be less than 354 or greater than 384.

                                        Peace Scrappy-doo,

                                        For anyone who cares, and if God so wills, I shall be fasting July 16 for 10 days.
                                        jedi eat peace

                                        The scorching full moon is on the night of July 16. So the fasting starts on the dawn of July 17 and lasts for 10 days, i.e. until July 26th.

                                        In most places, the full-moon will appear shortly after the sun sets. Remember the following passages as you witness it

                                        1. So I do swear by the redness of dusk.
                                          After sunset when the sky is glowing red

                                        2. And the night and what it enshrouds.
                                          and the night enshrouds the sky from the opposite direction

                                        3. And the moon when it becomes symmetric.
                                          from this direction the full symmetric moon appears.

                                        Tip I believe the best way to witness this full moon is to find a spot where there?s a low horizon at the point exactly opposite the sunset, because this is where the big full moon will rise (e.g. the countryside, the beach,...). Once it climbs overhead it will shrink to a fraction of its moonrise size. If possible, try to position yourself so it rises behind some far away buildings or trees to appreciate the size difference.
