The Night of Decree is the 27th day of the 9th moon: Incontrovertible proof

Lunar calendar is not out of sync with all natural systems. Lunar cycle itself is a natural system (Allah?s system). And what is season got to do with our deen. Nothing!
The lunar cycle, solar cycle and seasons are independent natural phenomenon. None of them are in synch with each other. If you use lunar cycle to stay in synch with the seasons, you will have to use a correction factor, say X. If you use solar cycle to stay in synch with the seasons, you will have to use a correction factor as well, say Y. The value of X may be larger than the value Y, the fact is a correction is required.
You can track the seasons with lunar cycle by applying the correction X. Likewise you can track the seasons with solar system by applying the correction factor Y. The key point is none of them are naturally in synch with the seasons. And this has nothing to do with religion.
You have talked about a natural marker. How accurately can you get back to the marker from year to year? You seem to imply the error is zero. I made the zero to a very small number. How do you assure yourself that your starting point is the same every year and not off by say 30 days.

The sighting of the starting point is described here
Anytime the moon is full, the sun and the moon are on opposite sides of the earth. Thus, if one is high in the sky, as the sun is around the summer solstice, the moon must be low. Of course, this is 100% consistent. So full moons that occur around the summer solstice are special because they follow the lowest path across the sky of all of the year's full moons.
The "scorching" aspect of the full moon occurs due to the same phenomenon that gives sunsets their red color. It is the scattering of light in the earth's dusty atmosphere close to the horizon. Thus, a full-moon that hangs lower across the horizon will appear and stay redder than one that quickly climbs to a higher altitude. Also, for some reason, our brains are wired to perceive such low hanging red full moons as much larger than normal. In addition, the red full-moon after the summer solstice is special because it occurs when the weather is starting to get very hot. Thus, the two aspects of "scorching" (the red color and heat) are associated with this particular full-moon.
Because of its color and appearance being associated with the hotter time of the year many ancient cultures had names for the full moon after the summer solstice such as hot moon, blood moon, red moon, etc. In a flat desert with its dusty atmosphere and very hot weather, this "scorching full moon" would have appeared very dramatic to the pre-quranic Arabs.
This is all easily verifiable by observing the full moon after the summer solstice when it appears. This is one of the easiest to witness attention-grabbing sights in the night sky.
It happens once a year every year. What a wonderful marker.

How do you determine the full moon? What is the criterion?
How do you know that full moon you are looking at is a FULL MOON not a day away from the actual full moon? It is not an on/off situation. Run a test with humans and you will know what I mean. This is the first error!
The second error you will make is with full moon that occurs few days prior to summer solstice vs. the full moon after the summer solstice. There is your 30 day error. Just run an impartial test to determine the fact for yourself.
The third error will be the 13th moon. Somehow you have to make it disappear.
All these issues were discussed in the hot Ramadan thread. There is no need to rewrite them again in this thread.

Seems we have someone who never took the time to observe the moon in his entire life... poor lad. Maybe he should try to measure the roundness of the moon with a coin... or an egg ... or an orange... rotfl

We don't even need a coin, an egg or an orange . The god tells us exactly and very simply how to determine the full moon
- So I do swear by the redness of dusk.

And the moon when it becomes symmetric/full.
http//i47.tinypic.com/2nqe0yh.jpg
After sunset when the sky is glowing red,
the night enshrouds the sky from the opposite direction
where the full symmetric moon appears.Guest ignores that the full-moon and the sun are on opposite sides of the earth. So the actual full-moon will appear shortly after sunset in 180 degrees opposite direction from where the darkness enshrouds the sky. This is why there has NEVER been any dispute amongst ANY people on the full-moon while EVERY SINGLE YEAR there are MANY disputes even in the same region and between neighbors about the waxing crescent moon.

Peace Ayisha,
Now that sort of sunset we get on the Nile in winter only, not in summer. I have some amazing pics of the reds and oranges from December sunsets
It is because in Egypt there are usually no clouds in the summer to further defract the light. On the East Coast of the US we get those kind of sunsets all the time sun. I am not sure where this pic was taken though. It is just a picture of dusk I found on line.
In the desert the sunsets look very red and dramatic because of the dusty atmosphere increasing the defraction of light.
Peace,
Ayman

Hey, I thought you were hiding behind Ayisha?s skirt. You had to come out to make fun of yourself again. Didn?t I tell you that you don?t know the implication of your own writing? Like Ayisha you respond without even understanding the question.
For your information the Full Moon, the moon day before the full moon, and the moon day after the full moon, looks the same with naked eyes. You need telescope or binocular to see the difference in the moon disk. I suppose the average Arabs during the time of Prophet Muhammad was walking with a telescope to find the easy marker. If you remove the calculated full moon reference from you head you will pick the day before or the day after moon as the full moon.
Unlike you, I have already validated the theory with an experiment. I asked people who knew nothing about the experiment, to identify the moon that appeared one day before the full moon; they said it was a full moon. An error! I did the same with the moon that appeared day after the full moon. They said it was a full moon. Another error. And you call this a clear cut marker. Lies after lies whose root can be traced back to root meaning dictionary.

The lunar cycle, the solar cycle and the seasons are from Allah, not a phenomenon. They are prefectly in sync with each other.
Peace Ayisha,
I hate to tell you that you don?t know the meaning of synch in this situation. I will leave it at that.
the solar calendar is in sync with the seasons and adding leap day every 4 years brings it in sync. This has everything to do with Allah and it is in Quran that you were given sun and moon to measure time and count the years and that you were given stars to guide you.
Your own statement proves that the solar calendar is not in synch with the seasons. If it is in perfect sync then you wouldn?t be adding anything to it! The fact that you are adding something tells me that it is out of sync without the additional thing.
As I have said above the calendar used was off by 30 days and thats why there was a month added every 3 years because the Lunar cycle is out of sync with the solar one.
Previously you said ?The lunar cycle, the solar cycle and the seasons are from Allah, not a phenomenon. They are prefectly in sync with each other. ?
Now you are saying ??.the Lunar cycle is out of sync with the solar one?. Can you understand these are contradictory statements? You should determine your limit and stay within it!

Hmmm... the arabs failed to do this.. by civilizations which predates the arabs by long periods were able to do this.... and moreover, they did it accurately... Such as the mayan calendar.. which remains accurate upto this date.. each eclipse and every moon phases are accurate.. http//www.scribd.com/doc/36215072/Maya-Astronomy

Seems that according to you... God made an error and every one of us should have been born with telescopic eyes or with a binocular in hand... this is pure bull_____!

Just to make sure, from what you are proposing, i take it that you do equate (wa 'l-qamara Id.aa 'ttasaqa/and the moon when it becomes full) with (shahr), is this correct?

Finally, you spoke the truth ?I dont know what i am writing right now!?
If you knew what you are writing then you would have known that the clear marker bull ?. you are advocating should require No technological aid to determine the so called clear marker. In other word, regular Joe Schmo should find the marker with their naked eyes. Therefore, when you brought the mayan crap you were contradicting yourself with your dearest clear marker concept. Didn?t I tell you that you don?t know the implication of your own writing?

How was it a contradiction? Sorry... i did not know the mayan had telescopes and satellites in orbit... had i know, it would not have said that!! I am looking forward to read your thesis on the Mayan civilization and their astronomical might for their time. I do not know what I would be without you! rotfl

I witnessed the full moon which you are describing in London this year. However, did not really know the significance of what I was seeing until I read your notes. It even made me pull over to the side, get out of my car and watch it in amazment, the redness of the moon and also how big it appeared was breath taking. I just wished I had a camera to capture that moment and share it.

If you really want to earn credibility and earn respect for your theory from knowledgeable people then I suggest you do the following
- Produce the picture of the moon that appears day before the full moon. Time stamp, background color, and other relevant data.
- Produce the picture of the full moon. Time stamp, background color, and other relevant data.
- Produce the picture of the moon that appears day after the full moon. Time stamp, background color, and other relevant data.
- Do the above three steps for previous moon cycle
- Do 1-3 steps for next moon cycle
- Post the data for open review
My prediction you will not do it because you are not serious about it. Serious people would have already done it with their original publication to validate the theory. You guys are FAKE or don?t know what you are doing! Thus you will earn no respect from good knowledgeable people.
Even if you do the above experiment, you will not publish the data because it will not validate your faulty theory. The evidence will bite your behind real hard.

It is an amazing feeling when one lives and experiences the signs in the great reading. It is that awareness that makes us achieve enlightment. I experienced for the first time 8416-18 this year and became aware of their meaning as they were happening in front of my eyes. The god is great.

I am not here to earn credibility or respect. I am not trying to sell anyone here anything which includes any theories. I am only pointing out that out of all the full moons you observe in a year there is a special one. Now try this test if you are truthful, observe all of them from now till october of next year and I will also, and we will talk again inshallah.
But remember guest if you are convinced with your timing method/intepretation of the Quran etc then may Allah bless you and may Allah guide us on the right path.
