I am a well known patwari and absolutely not the fan of Fowad Chodhary. In fact i personally hate this guy.
But for his stance on the moon siting, I am 100% with him. He is target of all Molvies and lots of thinkers on social media, including this forum. I am not an Aalim of Islam, but following is how i look at it. May Allah forgive me if I am wrong.
If we read the Soorah Yaseen Aaayah 38, 39 and 40 it is following.
وَالشَّمۡسُ تَجۡرِىۡ لِمُسۡتَقَرٍّ لَّهَا ؕ ذٰلِكَ تَقۡدِيۡرُ الۡعَزِيۡزِ الۡعَلِيۡمِؕ ﴿۳۸
SURAH YASEEN AYAT 38 WITH URDU TRANSLATION
اور سورج اپنے مقرر رستے پر چلتا رہتا ہے۔ یہ (خدائے) غالب اور دانا کا (مقرر کیا ہوا) اندازہ ہے ﴿۳۸﴾
SURAH YASEEN AYAT 38 WITH ENGLISH TRANSLATION
And the sun runneth on unto a resting-place for him. That is the measuring of the Mighty, the Wise. ﴾38﴿
وَالۡقَمَرَ قَدَّرۡنٰهُ مَنَازِلَ حَتّٰى عَادَ كَالۡعُرۡجُوۡنِ الۡقَدِيۡمِ ﴿۳۹
SURAH YASEEN AYAT 39 WITH URDU TRANSLATION
اور چاند کی بھی ہم نے منزلیں مقرر کردیں یہاں تک کہ (گھٹتے گھٹتے) کھجور کی پرانی شاخ کی طرح ہو جاتا ہے ﴿۳۹﴾
SURAH YASEEN AYAT 39 WITH ENGLISH TRANSLATION
And for the moon We have appointed mansions till she return like an old shrivelled palm-leaf. ﴾39﴿
لَا الشَّمۡسُ يَنۡۢبَغِىۡ لَهَاۤ اَنۡ تُدۡرِكَ الۡقَمَرَ وَلَا الَّيۡلُ سَابِقُ النَّهَارِؕ وَكُلٌّ فِىۡ فَلَكٍ يَّسۡبَحُوۡنَ ﴿۴۰
SURAH YASEEN AYAT 40 WITH URDU TRANSLATION
نہ تو سورج ہی سے ہوسکتا ہے کہ چاند کو جا پکڑے اور نہ رات ہی دن سے پہلے آسکتی ہے۔ اور سب اپنے اپنے دائرے میں تیر رہے ہیں ﴿۴۰﴾
SURAH YASEEN AYAT 40 WITH ENGLISH TRANSLATION
It is not for the sun to overtake the moon, nor doth the night outstrip the day. They float each in an orbit. ﴾40﴿
The last part of Ayah 40 states "They (sun and moon) float each in an orbit".
I think what it means here is that they (sun and moon) have their fixed orbits in which they are floating, Which do not change.
Now in this century when we can read their orbits then what the heck is wrong here ? Why cannot we accept that truth and by looking at their orbits we can tell "when it will be where". Why the heck we cannot accept that we can accurately now predict when the moon is going to be seen and when not.
Why are we so much after this Duboo. Why cant we see that whatever he is saying is right. Why cant we find other reasons to kick him, if we have to.
Note: I may be wrong in the interpretation of the aayaat but this is how it looked to me. So please if you want to give fatwa against me for other reasons, please go ahead. But I just said this is how I understand it. I may be wrong.
