Mufti Taqi Usmani 19th Dhul Hijja 1412 AH: I have replied to you letter and I hope that you have now received the earlier letter. In Saudi Arabia the sighting of the moon has been accepted before even the birth of the moon on many occasions which is impossible in my view. I have discussed the situation with many Saudi Ulama and they are also disturbed with these occurrences however since this is in the hands of the Majlisul Qadha Al-A’la Riyad they are helpless.
