The Islamic calendar adopted by Fiqh Council of North America (FCNA) is
based on calculations with Ittihadul-Mataali' concept for the sake of
global unity. FCNA decided to follow The European Council for Fatwa and
Research (ECFR), headed by Dr. Yusuf Qaradawi which states that the
sighting was not a requirement but just the means of ascertaining the
beginning for a new month, and that is now attained by exact
calculations.
The criteria are that after conjunction somewhere on the globe, at
local sunset, the angle between sun and moon should be at least 8° and
moon should be at least 5° above horizon. If these conditions are met,
the month starts the next day, otherwise the month starts on the day
following next day.
Eidul Adha will be following Yaum 'Arafah as determined by Saudi Supreme Court.
