However, other Muslim countries usually go with a Gregorian calendar for civil purposes but they use the Islamic calendar for religious purposes. On the other side, moon sighting plays a key role in the determination of Hijri calendar dates. However, the actual visibility of new crescent is hardly to predict as it depends on different factors such as the location of the observer, the atmosphere’s optical properties, weather, etc. It is a reason that Muslims depend on local and regional authorities to conduct the process of moon sighting as per the principles of sharia.
