Crescent Sighting Update

Crescent sighting Update - for 10th December, 2007 for Australia.

The al-Ghazzali Centre is relying on credible witnesses for the sighting of the moon from various locations in Sydney, Adelaide, Melbourne, Brisbane, Alice Springs and Perth for Australian sighting. Some 70 different national sighting locations are coordinated by Al-Ghazzali Centre under the guidance of Imam Afroz Ali. All sighting information is then submitted to the Ameer for the sighting, Shaykh Dr. Shabbir Ahmed, whose final decisions, after consultations, we forward to the public. We will make our best endeavours to provide the location of sighting, Insha Allah.
