(Admin: Please read note below)
As per scientific data, today Thursday July 16, the moon does not have enough light for it to be sighted anywhere in the Pacificas, Far East, Asia and Middle East. It is still dark because of its young age of few hours. It starts to reflect enough light by the time when it is Maghrib in South American continent. Hence the data shows the first credible sighting reports may come from South America. And if sighting is confirmed in South America, that moon would apply to North American continent as well (as per timezones) but it cannot be back dated by many hours and applied to Europe, Middle East and Asia.
InshaAllah Eid in Pakistan is expected no earlier than Saturday. So hold your breadth and please do not spread rumors and start cursing the Mullahs. They don't control the moon, Allah does.
