00:00We have heard the headlines and now we are going to talk about the lunar eclipse.
00:04Everyone has the same question in their minds, whether there will be the first fast tomorrow or not.
00:08And in this regard, the central eclipse committee meeting is going on in Peshawar,
00:12while the zonal committees are also sitting together in different cities.
00:15If we talk about Lahore, the news has come from Lahore that the moon of Ramadan has not been seen in Lahore,
00:20but now the rain has started.
00:22Director of Meteorology, Abdul Aziz, briefed the media and said that the moon was not seen.
00:27The final announcement of whether the moon will be seen or not will be made by the central eclipse committee.
00:32Director of Meteorology, Abdul Aziz, what does he say? Listen.
00:36The time of Lahore was 6.32 pm. We have held our meeting.
00:41Now we will share the information with you.
00:45It did not reach Lahore.
00:47Meanwhile, if we get any information, we will convey it to our central committee.
00:51Talk of Director of Meteorology.
00:53While you are talking about Karachi, there is information that the moon is not seen in Karachi.
00:57Nazir Ahmed Naeemi has said that there has been no testimony that the moon has been seen in Karachi.
01:03However, it is clear that the final announcement of whether the moon will be seen or not will be made by the central eclipse committee.
01:10Its meeting is going on in Peshawar.
01:12What do the members of the lunar committee from Karachi say? Listen.
01:17We know that no testimony has been received yet.
01:22Its central meeting has been held in Peshawar.
01:28The final announcement will be made by the chairman.
01:34Till now, we have been standing in the building of the Meteorological Department in Karachi.
01:41We have not received any information from the committee.
01:46The moon has not been seen in Karachi and Lahore.
01:49However, the central eclipse committee meeting is going on in Peshawar.
01:53Our representative Zafar Iqbal is present there.
01:55The moon Nawab is also joining us from Karachi.
01:58Zafar, the central eclipse committee meeting is going on.
02:02What details do you have from here?
02:04Yes, the central eclipse committee meeting is going on in Kaaf complex.
02:10It is being held by the chairman of the committee, Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad.
02:14However, no testimony has been received from the zonal committee of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa or other zonal committees in the country.
02:24The central chairman is waiting for a testimony from the committee.
02:31Then he will decide after the testimony.
02:34However, before that, he himself observed the moon from the telescope of the SPARCO team.
02:45But in most areas of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, it is cloudy.
02:49At the moment, it is raining in Peshawar.
02:54However, the SPARCO team observed the moon from the telescope of the SPARCO team in Karachi, Quetta and Gilgit-Baltistan.
03:10It was observed by the chairman of the committee, Arakeen.
03:14However, the moon was not observed from any place.
03:18Because the SPARCO team said that the moon is only 12 hours old.
03:23Therefore, there is very little chance of seeing the moon anywhere.
03:28Therefore, the meeting is still going on.
03:30So that if a testimony comes, it can be decided after checking it.
03:34However, the possibility of seeing the moon, especially in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, is very low.
03:41And now, with time, this possibility is increasing.
03:45Tell us, when will the meeting be held and when will the final announcement be made?
03:52As long as all the zonal committees, especially the zonal committees of big cities,
03:58such as Islamabad, Lahore, Karachi and Quetta,
04:03do not know that the moon has not been seen here,
04:08no information is received from them,
04:10or they do not finish their meeting,
04:13the meeting of the central committee will continue until then.
04:16And when all the possibilities are over,
04:19then the central chairman will come and give a briefing to the media.
04:23And the final decision on whether the moon will be seen or not will be made.
04:28Okay, Zafar, tell us that this has been said from Karachi and Lahore,
04:33that is, the zonal committees have announced from there,
04:35the media has been briefed that the moon has not been seen.
04:37So has the central committee been briefed and conveyed?
04:43Absolutely, that information has also reached them.
04:47They have been informed that we have not received any testimony here
04:51and the time to see the moon has also ended.
04:54After that, the meeting has been terminated.
04:56However, the zonal committees in Quetta, Islamabad and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
05:02are being waited for.
05:04If they get any information from the remote areas,
05:08that the moon has been seen here,
05:11then that information will be conveyed to the central committee.
05:16That is why the scholars and the committee members are still sitting.
05:20Okay, the zonal committees will be contacted
05:23and then the central committee will be conveyed to Peshawar.
05:26Let's go to Karachi.
05:27The meeting of the zonal committee is going on here to see the moon
05:30and the moon Nawab is keeping an eye on this zonal committee.
05:33Moon Nawab, tell us, is the moon not visible?
05:37Yes, absolutely.
05:38The meeting of the zonal committee in Karachi is going on in Karachi.
05:43Because the time of the moon was 5 degrees in the sky,
05:46it was 29 minutes after sunset, that time has also ended.
05:50The moon has not been seen from any area of Karachi.
05:53That is why the meeting of the zonal committee in Karachi is almost over.
05:57And because the weather is very bad here,
06:01that is why the weather department had to say that
06:04there is no possibility of seeing the moon in Karachi.
06:07The zonal committee's Mr. Naimi was also talking to the media
06:12and said that there is no evidence of the moon being seen yet.
06:16Because the time has also ended,
06:18that is why there is no possibility of seeing the moon in Karachi.
06:23Has the zonal committee conveyed this to the central committee?
06:28Yes, they have told the Karachi committee that
06:31there is no information of the moon in Karachi.
06:35Because the weather in Karachi was very bad.
06:37The weather department had already told the media
06:40that the moon is not visible even from a distance of 5 cm.
06:44If the moon is visible from a distance of 15 cm, then the moon is visible.
06:48The weather in Karachi is very bad.
06:50The wind is blowing.
06:52That is why there was no possibility of seeing the moon.
06:55There was a possibility of seeing the moon after 29 minutes of sunset.
06:59But that time has also ended.
07:02Now there is no possibility of seeing the moon in Karachi.
07:07It is very important to clarify that
07:10the final announcement about the moon will be made by the central committee.
07:14The zonal committee is announcing about its zone.
07:17Let's go to Sukkur. Nasir Jafri is with us.
07:19Nasir, what is the update you have?
07:21What is the situation in Sukkur?
07:25The committee to see the moon was in the deputy commissioner's office at 5 o'clock.
07:32The meeting had started today.
07:34It is night now.
07:35The time of sunset has passed.
07:37But the moon has not been seen yet.
07:39According to the scholars, the moon has not been seen yet.
07:45As of now, it is night and the moon has not been seen yet.
07:52According to the scholars, the moon has not been seen yet.
07:58The moon has not been seen yet.
08:02This is the situation in Sukkur and Karachi.
08:05However, the central committee in Peshawar is working hard.
08:08The meeting of the zonal committees is going on.
08:11As soon as the moon is seen, the central committee will make a final decision.
08:20Zafar, what do the authorities of the Association of Meteorology and SPARCO say about the moon?
08:29When will the moon be seen?
08:32And why is it not seen today?
08:34Please share the scientific information.
08:36If the moon is at least 19 hours old, then it is possible to see it.
08:43Now the moon is only 12 years old.
08:46That is why the moon was not visible from the latest digital telescope.
08:51And when the weather is bad, it is very difficult to see the moon.
08:56But the reason for the ongoing meeting is that
09:00Since Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad has been in charge of the committee as chairman,
09:06he has continued the meeting for a long time to maintain the unity of the country in terms of Ramadan and Eid.
09:18So that the scholars of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and the public's objection to the previous committee
09:23that they make a final decision and announce that the moon has not been seen
09:28This is the third year that Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad comes to Peshawar for a meeting
09:36and sits for a long time.
09:38When he gets information from everywhere that the moon is visible or not,
09:43then he comes and decides.
09:45Then he reaches his decision.
09:46And you are pointing to the direction that is not taken directly.
09:49Zafar, please stay with us.
09:51Let's go to Islamabad.
09:52Zahid Mashwani has also joined us.
09:53Let's take updates from the government.
09:55Zahid, what updates do you have on the moon?
10:03Zahid, can you hear me?
10:08Zahid, what updates do you have on the crescent moon?
10:12Zahid, what updates do you have on the crescent moon?
10:42Zahid, what updates do you have on the crescent moon?
11:12Zahid, what updates do you have on the crescent moon?
11:42The crescent moon is not visible in Islamabad yet.
11:45The crescent moon is not visible in Islamabad yet.
11:47Zahid, please stay with us.
11:49The crescent moon is visible.
11:50Zafar Iqbal and Nasir Jafri are also with us.
11:53We will come to you again.
11:55We will talk to you.
11:56At the moment, we are looking for an answer to only one question.
12:00And that is, will there be the first fast tomorrow or not?
12:03In this regard, the meeting of the Central Ruyat-e-Hilal Committee is being held in Peshawar
12:08under the leadership of Chairman Committee Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad.
12:11And they are in contact with the zonal committees.
12:13While the meetings of the zonal committees are also being held.
12:15For example, this zonal committee is sitting in Karachi.
12:18But it has not yet received any testimony.
12:20Similarly, a zonal committee was assembled in Lahore.
12:23And it also provided numbers for the testimonies related to the crescent moon.
12:27And it also saw the moon itself.
12:29But the moon is not visible.
12:31And now it has started raining in Lahore.
12:33In fact, the meeting of the Central Ruyat-e-Hilal Committee is being held in Peshawar.
12:37Zafar was telling us that when the meeting of the Central Ruyat-e-Hilal Committee is being held for the decision of the crescent moon,
12:43clouds are also raining here.
12:45It has started raining.
12:47It is raining lightly.
12:49You also saw in Islamabad.
12:50Zahid Nishwani updated.
12:51However, this announcement was made a little while ago from Karachi.
12:54Director of the Meteorological Department, Abdul Aziz, briefed the media.
12:57And he said, in fact, this happened in Lahore.
12:59Director of the Meteorological Department, Abdul Aziz, said in Lahore that the moon was not visible.
13:04And he said that the final decision will be made by the Central Ruyat-e-Hilal Committee.
13:08So, what was the director of the Meteorological Department, Abdul Aziz, saying about the meeting of the Zonal Committee in Lahore?
13:13See.
13:15The time of Lahore was 6.52 pm.
13:18We had our committee meeting.
13:20Now we will share the information with you.
13:24It did not reach Lahore.
13:26Meanwhile, if we get any information, we will convey it to our headquarters.
13:29He is the director of the Meteorological Department, Abdul Aziz, in Lahore.
13:32He said that the moon was not visible in Lahore.
13:34However, this is clear.
13:36It is necessary to repeat this again and again.
13:39Whether the moon will be visible or not.
13:43This final decision will be made by the Central Ruyat-e-Hilal Committee.
13:46And Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad will come and announce whether the moon is visible or not.
13:51However, if we talk about Karachi, the Zonal Committee meeting continued here as well.
13:56In Karachi, Nazir Ahmed Naeemi said that he also did not receive any testimony.
14:02But it was repeated that this is the Zonal Committee.
14:04And we have not received any testimony as far as Karachi.
14:07However, this is the decision of the Central Ruyat-e-Hilal Committee.
14:09It will decide.
14:11And it will also announce it.
14:13So what announcement was made from Karachi?
14:14What did Nazir Ahmed Naeemi say?
14:16See that as well.
14:18As you know, no testimony has been received yet.
14:22And the Central Ruyat-e-Hilal Committee meeting was held in Peshawar.
14:27And the final announcement will be made from there.
14:32The Chairman will make it.
14:34So far, we have been standing in the building of the Zonal Committee in Karachi.
14:41And we have not received any information from the committee at this time.
14:46Nor has there been any such testimony.
14:49And I would like to request you as well.
14:52This is a legal matter.
14:54It is a sensitive matter.
14:56No one from our side or from your side.
14:59Do not provide any separate information in the future.
15:02So that the livelihood of the people is not ruined.
15:05And no one is hurt.
15:07So you wait.
15:09We are also doing it.
15:10If we receive any testimony.
15:13Then we will first share it with the Central Committee.
15:15Then we will share it with you.
15:17If you receive any testimony.
15:19Then you share it with us.
15:21Then we will send it to the Central Committee.
15:23And they will announce it from there.
15:25Mr. Chairman.
15:26So this is the procedure.
15:28That the Zonal Committees sit and try to see the moon.
15:31And if the moon is seen.
15:33Then it is told to the Central Committee.
15:36Let's go to Islamabad.
15:37Zahid Mishwani is with us.
15:38Let's ask him if there has been any such announcement here.
15:40Or is there any possibility here.
15:42Or is it being waited for a testimony?
15:44Yes, Zahid, tell us.
15:46Absolutely.
15:47No testimony has been received yet.
15:49And at the moment, the Zonal Committee meeting is going on in the Ministry of Religious Affairs.
15:54All relevant members and stakeholders.
15:56The representatives of other communities are also present here.
16:00The media is also present.
16:01The rest of the Zonal Committees are associated with the Central Committee through video link.
16:06And they have contact with each other.
16:08In Islamabad.
16:09Today I said earlier.
16:11That there is a problem in Islamabad.
16:13And there is a possibility of seeing the moon in Islamabad.
16:15It is almost impossible.
16:18This is the reason that no testimony has been received in Islamabad so far.
16:22Although this announcement will be made after a while.
16:24What is the situation in Islamabad.
16:26But no testimony has been received about the moon so far.
16:31And the people and representatives of the relevant parties here.
16:35When they were also interviewed.
16:37They said that the moon is not so old.
16:40So that the sun can be seen immediately after sunset.
16:45That's why there is little chance of seeing the moon today.
16:48This has been said many times before by experts in astronomy.
16:52That there is very little chance of seeing the moon today.
16:56But it was also said that this is a final announcement.
16:59It should not be understood that this is a final announcement.
17:01All this will be informed to the Central Committee.
17:05And the Chairman of the Central Committee, Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad.
17:08Will formally announce whether there is a fast tomorrow or not.
17:12The Central Committee will announce whether the moon will be seen or not.
17:15But no testimony has been received in Islamabad so far.
17:19No testimony has been received in Islamabad.
17:21The same is the case with Sukkur.
17:22The same is the case with Karachi.
17:23A meeting is going on in Peshawar.
17:24Let's turn to Quetta.
17:25Aziz-ur-Rehman Kakar has joined us.
17:27All four of you stay with us.
17:29Zafar, Nasir, Zahid and Chand Nawab.
17:31Aziz-ur-Rehman, tell us what is the situation in Quetta.
17:34Has there been any testimony from the Zonal Committee?
17:38Yes, there is a meeting of the Zonal Committee in Quetta.
17:43But no testimony has been received from the Police Station.
17:47The moon was to be seen from 6.59 to 7.07.
17:52Which is now over.
17:54But the meeting of the Zonal Committee is still going on.
18:00They are saying that they will wait for another 10 to 15 minutes.
18:04So that the moon can be seen.
18:07Okay.
18:08And tell us what is the situation here?
18:11The situation in most of the areas of Balochistan is very bad.
18:16But the situation in Quetta is very clear.
18:18If the moon is seen, it can be seen.
18:22But the moon was to be seen from 6.59 to 7.07.
18:26Which is now over.
18:27The moon is clear but it is not seen.
18:30No testimony has been received from Balochistan.
18:33Okay.
18:34Aziz-ur-Rehman Kakar, update us from Quetta.
18:37I want to ask Zafar.
18:39Zafar, you are saying that it is raining in Peshawar.
18:45What is the situation in the tribal areas?
18:48Because we have seen that as time goes by,
18:51because some people have difficulty in contacting there.
18:54So it is being reported from a little late.
18:57So is it raining there too?
18:59Is it raining?
19:00The people of Quetta also have full confidence.
19:03And because of this, this meeting is still going on after a long time.
19:07Even after so much time.
19:09If we look at the past, this meeting was finished in a hurry.
19:13After that, the people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa were angry.
19:20And because of this, they used to follow the local committee.
19:23Because they announced by 10 o'clock that the moon is visible.
19:27They used to follow it on Ramadan or Eid.
19:30But this time the situation has changed.
19:32Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad's head of the Central Committee,
19:35especially the meetings on Eid, Ramadan and Eid,
19:38are held in Peshawar.
19:40And then they stay in contact with the local committees here.
19:44The testimonies they receive are also sent here.
19:48And then they are tested according to it.
19:52And then they make a decision according to it.
19:54So that's why they are waiting a little.
19:56So that if there is any information from the local committees ...
19:59You have mentioned the local committee, Zafar.
20:01Tell me that the local committee has not received any testimony yet?
20:07Yes, the local committee meeting is also being held in Kasim Ali Khan Mosque
20:11under the leadership of Maulana Mufti Shahabuddin Popalzai.
20:14But there is no information from Peshawar.
20:19While the other local committees of Peshawar ...
20:22These local committees sit in different districts.
20:24In addition to Jeddawar, Charsadda, Nushehra, Banu.
20:27This is an important station.
20:28And Sawabi, from where the information about the visible moon is often received.
20:32But so far, no such information has reached Kasim Ali Khan Mosque.
20:37Whether the moon has been seen or not.
20:40So the scholars are waiting there.
20:42And if something comes there,
20:44If there is any testimony,
20:46Then they will contact Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad here.
20:50And then a decision will be made accordingly.
20:53So after a while of waiting,
20:55I think it is possible that Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad ...
20:58He will be in a position to announce.
21:00Final and official announcement.
21:02Okay, I want to know from you, Zafar, Nasir and Zahid Mishwani.
21:05This is a matter of the age of the moon.
21:07Yes or no, please tell me the answer.
21:09This is a matter of the age of the moon.
21:11Zafar.
21:13According to the Sparco authorities, it is the age of the moon.
21:16According to the age of the moon ...
21:18Nasir, you also have the same news.
21:20Sparco people are saying that it is a matter of the age of the moon.
21:25Yes, it is a matter of the age of the moon.
21:28The members of the Royal Ahlal Committee of Sukkur,
21:31They have also confirmed that so far,
21:34It is a matter of the age of the moon.
21:36Zahid, are you able to hear?
21:38Zahid, are you able to hear?
21:40It is a matter of the age of the moon.
21:44Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad is with us on the telephone line.
21:47Maulana, thank you so much.
21:49Tell me, has anyone contacted the Zonal Committees or individually
21:53Have you told about any martyrdom?
21:56It is ongoing.
21:57And God willing, whatever the decision will be,
22:00God willing, through you,
22:02We will give them a lot of ...
22:04In a little while, we will give them from the center.
22:07Maulana Sahib, how long will the meeting continue?
22:09Is there a limit to this?
22:11Our last time is at 7.24 pm.
22:16We will see that.
22:18After that, God willing,
22:20We will decide.
22:22And are you in contact with the local committee of Peshawar?
22:25Yes, the Zonal Committee is also with us.
22:27Because our meeting is not happening in Peshawar.
22:32And both the committees are also involved in it.
22:34And at this time, we are talking.
22:38And the Zonal Committees of the whole country are also in contact with us.
22:43As soon as something happens,
22:45God willing, in front of the whole nation,
22:48God willing, we will keep it soon.
22:50Maulana, you have tried to find the moon with the latest equipment.
22:53Meaning, because now there is a flood,
22:55So there was definitely difficulty in this.
22:57And the equipment is more advanced than before.
22:59Despite this, there is still difficulty.
23:01Actually, we are in contact with the whole country.
23:06And apart from that,
23:08Our last time,
23:10We would like to see that when it is completed,
23:15And during that time,
23:17If any martyr comes in front of us,
23:20God willing, we will keep it in front of the nation.
23:22The Zonal Committees have announced from Karachi and Lahore.
23:25The media has been briefed that the moon has not been seen.
23:27Has this information been conveyed to you?
23:29Our Central Zonal Committee will announce.
23:33And they have terminated their committee after their time.
23:38And you have not received any information from Islamabad or Quetta
23:42about the moon?
23:43We are sitting in Quetta and in Karachi.
23:46And you said that the last time is 7.24 pm?
23:49Yes, approximately 7.24 pm.
23:53And will you wait for the tribal assembly?
23:55Because often there is difficulty in getting in touch from there.
23:57We are getting in touch.
23:59And you know that there is a problem in the whole country.
24:03And God willing,
24:06Because the assembly is going on,
24:08I am talking to you about the assembly.
24:10God willing, we will get in touch with you.
24:13The assembly in Peshawar has its own significance and importance.
24:17So, you have a complete contact with the local committee.
24:20And they are also in touch.
24:22Will it coincide with your announcement?
24:24Will it coincide with your announcement?
24:26God willing, the whole nation is with us.
24:30And God willing,
24:32the decision we will make for the whole nation,
24:36by the grace of God,
24:38will be the decision of Pakistan.
24:40Thank you very much.
24:42Thank you so much for your time.
24:44Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad,
24:46Chairman of the Central Riyadh-e-Hilal Committee,
24:48is saying that the assembly is still going on in Karachi.
24:51But he made it clear that because the matter is very complicated,
24:54and in this regard, he is in constant contact with the local committees.
24:57But until now, when he spoke to us,
25:00no information has been given from any local committee about any martyrdom.
25:04No confirmation has come,
25:06so that the Central Riyadh-e-Hilal Committee,
25:08Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad and his team,
25:10can examine that martyrdom,
25:12and all the regulations of that martyrdom,
25:14can be seen under it.
25:16So, it is now 7.26, 28 minutes.
25:20And until the Central Riyadh-e-Hilal Committee,
25:23there has been no testimony from the zonal committees.
25:26At the same time, the local committee of Peshawar,
25:29because of which an assembly is being held in Peshawar,
25:31so that there is a complete harmony,
25:33Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad said that he is in contact with them.
25:36And he is trying, and this is a prayer,
25:38that with complete harmony,
25:40in the whole of Pakistan,
25:42the month of Siyam begins on the same day,
25:44and the first fast begins on the same day.
25:46However, he has set a time limit,
25:48that until 7.24,
25:50there was a window,
25:52where the Council of Meteorologists,
25:54and the Sparco authorities said that
25:56the moon can be found here,
25:58at this time.
26:00But at the same time,
26:02it was said that the chances are very low.
26:04So, the moon has been tried to be seen at this time,
26:06through the latest equipment,
26:08through naked eyes as well.
26:10But despite all this,
26:12the moon has not been seen yet.
26:14But when we are communicating with you,
26:16this is not a final announcement.
26:18The official announcement regarding the moon
26:20will be made by Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad himself.
26:22The announcement will be made at the government level,
26:24which we will also show you.
26:26Our team in Peshawar is keeping an eye on this meeting.
26:28And according to the time
26:30that Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad said,
26:32that time has been completed.
26:34But it is obvious,
26:36that after the other stages of the discussion,
26:38it is expected that a final announcement
26:40will be made.
26:42And the question is,
26:44what will be the final announcement?
26:46Let's go to Zafar.
26:48Zafar, you also heard the conversation
26:50of Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad.
26:52Is the discussion over?
26:54Is the final discussion going on?
26:56Yes, the discussion is going on.
26:58And in a little while,
27:00Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad
27:02along with other members of the committee,
27:04will come in front of us.
27:06This is the condition of the station complex
27:08where the cameras have been installed.
27:10He will come there and officially announce
27:12whether the moon has been seen or not.
27:14Whether the first day of Ramadan will be blessed or not.
27:16He will officially announce it.
27:18But he has to say,
27:20that the local committee
27:22is also in contact with him.
27:24And if there is any testimony,
27:26then after checking it,
27:28after the discussion is completed,
27:30it will be officially announced.
27:32And there are only a few moments left.
27:34And in a little while,
27:36Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad
27:38will come and officially announce it.
27:40This is the stage of the discussion.
27:42Our representatives from different cities
27:44are with us.
27:46We will talk more about
27:48whether the first day of Ramadan will be blessed or not.
27:50But let's take a break.
27:52Welcome back to Musalsal Baat Horai.
27:54We are discussing whether the moon
27:56has been seen or not.
27:58From where it is known
28:00that the moon has not been seen.
28:02And what are the updates
28:04from the central committee?
28:06Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad
28:08has said that he is in contact
28:10with the zonal committees of the country.
28:12However, the final announcement
28:14will be made by the central committee.
28:16And he has also said
28:18that he is also in contact
28:20with the local committee
28:22in Peshawar.
28:24And he is trying to make
28:26a final decision
28:28about the moon.
28:30As far as I have heard,
28:32Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad
28:34said that this window
28:36can be used to see the moon.
28:38However, I think
28:40a final discussion is going on there.
28:42And it is expected that
28:44they will announce
28:46what the final decision is.
28:48Let's go to Chand Nawab.
28:50Is the Zonal Committee meeting
28:52going on in Karachi or is it over?
28:54In Karachi,
28:56the Zonal Committee meeting
28:58is going on.
29:00But in Karachi,
29:02there is no information
29:04about the moon.
29:06Because the weather in Karachi
29:08is very bad.
29:10The weather is very bad.
29:12The time of the moon
29:14was discussed with the representatives
29:16of the Zonal Committee.
29:18They said that if the moon
29:20was 15 degrees,
29:22it would be visible in the sky.
29:24But the moon is 5 degrees in the sky.
29:26So it is not possible to see the moon.
29:28The telescope
29:30that was installed today
29:32has not been able to see the moon.
29:34There is no information
29:36about the moon in Karachi.
29:38The Zonal Committee meeting
29:40in Peshawar
29:42will decide whether the moon
29:44is visible or not.
29:46But no information
29:48has been received
29:50about the moon in Karachi.
29:52The meeting is still going on.
29:54But the weather department
29:56says that the moon
29:58is 5 degrees in the sky.
30:00So it is not possible
30:02to see the moon in Karachi.
30:04This is what the weather department
30:06has to say.
30:08Alright.
30:10Let's ask Zahid Mashwani
30:12about the Zonal Committee meeting
30:14in Islamabad.
30:16Zahid, what is the latest
30:18information you have?
30:20The meeting
30:22in Islamabad
30:24is still going on.
30:26But the moon
30:28is not visible.
30:30The Zonal Committee
30:32has been informed about this.
30:34The Zonal Committee
30:36has been
30:38in the clouds
30:40all day long.
30:42That is why
30:44the moon is not visible.
30:46There is no evidence
30:48or any information
30:50about the moon.
30:52But the telescope
30:54and the astrophysicists
30:56of Islamabad
30:58are present.
31:00You asked
31:02about the age of the moon.
31:04The moon was born
31:06at 5.45 am.
31:08After sunset,
31:10the moon
31:12is 14 hours old.
31:14That is why
31:16the moon
31:18is not visible
31:20to the human eye
31:22or the telescope.
31:24If the moon
31:26is visible to the telescope
31:28or the human eye,
31:30then the moon
31:32will be seen.
31:34But no such thing
31:36has been found yet.
31:38The astrophysicists
31:40of Islamabad
31:42have said
31:44that the moon
31:46is not visible
31:48to the human eye
31:50and the telescope
31:52is also not visible
31:54to the human eye.
31:56Nasir Jafri is with us.
31:58Nasir, tell us
32:00if any of the people
32:02who are watching
32:04the moon
32:06have seen the moon.
32:08The moon is not visible
32:10to the human eye.
32:12The people
32:14who are watching
32:16the moon
32:18are also present.
32:20The moon is not visible
32:22to the human eye
32:24and the telescope
32:26is also not visible
32:28to the human eye.
32:30The weather
