Alhamdulillaah, the month of Rajab 1433 AH has been passing out and will soon be replaced with the month of Sha’ban. Because the islamic calendar is based on moon movement then the entry into new month is determined by when the crescent moon will be visible.

The astronomical new moon for Sha’ban occurs at 15:02 UT on 19 June 2012. Almost all regions in the world will not be able to see crescent moon on the evening on that day. It is in the following evening, Wednesday, 20 June 2012 that the hilal or youngest crescent moon will be easier to spot.
