Pearl of Wisdom

'I am the guide and I am the guided. I am the father of the orphans and the destitute, and the guardian of the widows. I am the refuge of every weak person and the haven of every fearful one. I am the leader of the believers to Paradise; I am the strong rope of Allah; I am Allah's firmest handle and the word of Godwariness. I am the eye of Allah, His truthful tongue and His hand.'

Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib [as]

al-Tawhid, p. 164, no. 2

Subject:	rules of moon sighting
Question:	What is the proof of sighting the moon?

The testimony of two men of impeccable character, provided that you do not have any knowledge of instances that they may be wrong, and that you do not dispute their testimony. 3. The lapse of thirty days on the month of Sha’ban, thus reaching certitude that Sha’ban has come to an end and that Ramadhan shall commence. 4. When the news of the birth of the moon of Ramadhan becomes commonplace that you are sure of the sighting.
