Based on the astronomical calculations and personal experience , the Crescent (Hilal) will NOT be visible across the country.

Therefore Sha’ban will continue its 30 days

Ramadan will start on 21st July 2012 on Saturday

Actually Ramadan starts after the Sunset on Friday..

(Not to get confused, The Arabic new day always starts after Sunset)

The Sun & Moon Data on Friday 20th will be as the following;

Age of Moon: Waxing Crescent : ~ 1.38 days old.
