A Saudi board in charge of sighting the moon said on Thursday, July 16, that its members had sighted the moon of Shawwal, the 10th month in the Islamic calendar that comes after Ramadan, InterAz.a website reported.
The board, therefore, announced Friday as Eid al-Fitr, which marks the end of Ramadan.
But it later admitted that what had been sighted was the planet Saturn, not the moon, and that, actually, the Eid fell on Saturday.

THIS year the science and technology minister had announced that Eid would be celebrated on the same day all over the world, ie 5th June. This was a tall order.
Sure enough, on Ramazan 29 (4th June) we read in papers that Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Saudi Arabia celebrated Eid on Tuesday (4th June).
Then the hullabaloo started. Arab countries had differences on when Ramazan should end. Some countries, including Egypt, insisted that it should end on Tuesday and not Monday. The countries who celebrated Eid on Tuesday asked their citizens to fast an additional day and the Saudi authorities announced it would pay one billion six million riyal as kafara to compensate for the mistake in announcing Eid on the wrong day.

What is kaffara?
Kaffara (expiation) provides an opportunity to recompense for individuals who deliberately miss or break a fast during Ramadan without a valid reason. In the Hanafi school, if a person misses a day of fasting unnecessarily, he or she should either fast for 60 consecutive days or feed 60 poor people.

Muslims give a lot of charity - billions every Ramadan. But are they giving to the right charities? How do 100% donation policies actually work?
