Question:
The Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: Many of the students of knowledge speak about the time of Fajr’s entry, claiming that its time in the calendar is earlier than the actual entry of Fajr.
Answer:
These people have nothing but confusion and contradiction. This is their habit and their affair. They have no expertise in the times. They have no expertise in the times. They only want to confuse the people. The Umm al-Qura calendar is approved, and it has been tested and examined.
It has become clear that it is a calendar that is accurate and regulated, and this is through experience. We pray; the mu’adhdhin calls the adhan for Fajr according to the calendar. The imam waits a quarter of an hour or a third of an hour, then he prays. Then we go out, and when we go out, if the daylight is clearly visible, the daylight is clearly visible, this indicates that the calendar is correct and there is no discrepancy as they say. And these rumors must be rejected and not heeded. They have now subsided; they have now subsided from what they were before, when they saw that the Muslims did not pay attention to their claim, this rumor subsided. Yes.
