Each year the Muslim community is in disarray over the start and end of Ramadan, i.e. sighting of the moon (hilal). Blame can be attributed to intolerence of valid theological differences and uncompromising positions according to sectarian politics from people's countries of origin. However, a lot of the time both camps are highly ignorant of Astronomy in general.
Muslims in the past had been leaders in this science, known as Ilm al-Falak, but this is not the case today. Nowadays, to find a Muslim astronomer is like trying to find ET in our galaxy. |
