What does it mean for the crescent moon to be high in the sky on the second night of Ramadan?

Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, some people in this country were confused about the start of the month of Ramadan, as the crescent moon was seen high in the sky on the second night of this month. Does this mean that the crescents are swollen?

Answer:
It is obligatory for the Muslim to fast with the Muslims and break his fast with the Muslims. He has no concern with the crescent moon. If he fasts and the Muslims in the country are fasting, he fasts with them, and if they break their fast, he breaks his fast with them, because he is a Muslim. As for the matter of the crescent moon, it is up to the scholars of fatwa, the scholars of knowledge to whom the observation of the crescents is entrusted. They are the ones who are asked about this. As for you, you must follow the Muslims; fast with them and break your fast with them, and praise be to Allah. You are not responsible for the crescent moon. Yes.
