Question:
Assalam u alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh
Beloved Mawlana, please pray for me and my family.
We are living in Pakistan and most of the times there is a two day difference between Cyprus and Pakistan. As a result when Mawlana is celebrating Shab-e-Mairaj or Shab-e-Baraat the same is being celebrated 2 days later in our country. This creates confusion whether we are actually praying on the correct night or not.
We hear that there can be some hours delay or maybe half a days delay in the sighting of the moon if a country is in the other hemisphere.
Please explain this as there are lots of people who would like to know. JazakAllah Kher.
With highest respects.
