Abstract

Crescent observation as one of the practices carried out within the scope of falak science has an escalation in methods to adapt the development of science and technology. The development of crescent observation method has an impact on the observation time. In the past, observing crescent only focused when the sun had set, but now observing crescent can be done since the sun is still above the horizon. OIF UMSU as an institution engaged in the field of falak science also conducts crescent observations every month from noon. On November 25, 2022, OIF Barus Team managed to capture the new moon crescent at noon at 13:49 WIB with an elongation of 18°25'.

Abstract

For a long time, Muslims were facing problems related to the determination of the Tarwiyah and the Arafat fasting day. In this case, whether Muslims should follow the Saudi Arabian calendar or the local one. In this study, Muslims differ in opinion, some argue that they should follow the Saudi Arabia calendar and others say that enough to follow the national calendar. The absence of unified calendar resulted in many problems faced by Muslims in assigning their holidays such as Ramadan, Shawwal, and Dhulhijah. To achieve Muslim unification in conducting various religious rituals, Muslims must have a unification dating system in order to realize togetherness in determining the worshipping time. This research is literature research. Thus the data that used in the form of books, journals, and other references. The results concluded that the determination of Tarwiyah and f Arafat Day until now still provides dispute among Muslims, there are those who argue specifically in determining the Dhulhijah beginning must be oriented to the Saudi Arabia kingdom’s determination. While others argue that assigning the worshipping time does not have to follow Saudi Arabia, just adhering to the nation’s determination
