The occurrence of disagreement regarding the time of the Day of 'Arafah

Question : Just as in the issue of fasting, differences in moon sighting also affect the knowledge of fasting.

Answer : Yes, indeed. Do not fast if it is... Yes, perhaps the Day of 'Arafah is the day of the festival for us in the eastern countries, but in my opinion, people do not differ regarding 'Id al-Adha nowadays; the apparent ruling is that everyone follows the sighting of the Kingdom, even those in the east. Yes, it differs, it has an effect, but people’s practice now is based on agreement. Yes, witness. Yes, a month is required; what did their testimony return? If it means that it must be with the people. It is not valid; it must occur with the people. What is the situation? Did the people stand before or after? Well, they stand with the people, and that does them no harm.
