Our sole response to those acts is the words of the Exalted, “O you who have faith! Be wary of Allah, and speak upright words. He shall rectify your conduct for you and He shall forgive you your sins. Whoever obeys Allah and His Apostle has certainly achieved a great success.” (al-Quran 33:70-71). We address you as the representative of your Kingdom, which is honored by the Holy Ka’bah – a point of unity for all Muslims and those who pray, in this country. You also represent his Majesty King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz Al Saud, whose history is replete with initiatives to repair the rifts in the Arab and Muslim worlds and with issues pertaining to dialogue and interfaith relations.

As for the United States and Canada most regions were cloudy. Therefore, based on the following two points:• His Eminence Grand Ayatullah Sayyid Sistani's opinion is: “The sighting of the new crescent in any region establishes the possibility of its sighting--had there been no barriers--in regions located to its west, as long as they are not too distant in latitude.”• He has mentioned the following condition in his verdict (see the link): "the standard for the attainment of a sense of assurance should be through the correlation of 'the size and the altitude of the new crescent' in the region where the new crescent is sighted to other regions.”Saturday, August 22nd, 2009 is the first day of the month of Ramadhan for anyone who attains a sense of assurance based on the above criteria. It is worth mentioning for those still following the Late Grand Ayatullah Sayyid al-Khoei that the 1st of the Month of Ramadhan will be on Saturday in all of North America.We Ask Allah to accept all our deeds and worships in this Holy Month.The Crescent CommitteeAdministrator AccountSat, 22 Aug 2009 16:15:00 GMTf1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:170http://www.imam-us.org/NewsEvents/OfficialStatements/tabid/138/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/168/Default.aspx#Comments0http://www.imam-us.org/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/RssComments.aspx?TabID=138&ModuleID=948&ArticleID=168http://www.imam-us.org/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/Tracking/Trackback.aspx?ArticleID=168&PortalID=0&TabID=138http://www.imam-us.org/NewsEvents/OfficialStatements/tabid/138/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/168/Default.aspx"The Crescent Committee" of the Council of Shia Muslim Scholars in North America would like to announce that there were no reports of sighting of the New Crescent anywhere in North America at sunset on Wednesday July 22nd, 2009.Administrator AccountThu, 23 Jul 2009 03:46:00 GMTf1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:168http://www.imam-us.org/NewsEvents/OfficialStatements/tabid/138/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/167/Default.aspx#Comments0http://www.imam-us.org/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/RssComments.aspx?TabID=138&ModuleID=948&ArticleID=167http://www.imam-us.org/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/Tracking/Trackback.aspx?ArticleID=167&PortalID=0&TabID=138http://www.imam-us.org/NewsEvents/OfficialStatements/tabid/138/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/167/Default.aspx"The Crescent Committee" of the Council of Shia Muslim Scholars in North America would like to announce that the New Crescent was sighted at sunset on Tuesday in Toronto, ONT (Canada) and Orlando, FL with the naked eye.Administrator AccountWed, 24 Jun 2009 03:22:00 GMTf1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:167http://www.imam-us.org/NewsEvents/OfficialStatements/tabid/138/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/165/Default.aspx#Comments0http://www.imam-us.org/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/RssComments.aspx?TabID=138&ModuleID=948&ArticleID=165http://www.imam-us.org/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/Tracking/Trackback.aspx?ArticleID=165&PortalID=0&TabID=138http://www.imam-us.org/NewsEvents/OfficialStatements/tabid/138/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/165/Default.aspx"The Crescent Committee" of the Council of Shia Muslim Scholars in North America would like to announce that there were no reports of sightings of the New Crescent at sunset on Sunday May 24th, 2009. Administrator AccountMon, 25 May 2009 04:08:00 GMTf1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:165http://www.imam-us.org/NewsEvents/OfficialStatements/tabid/138/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/156/Default.aspx#Comments0http://www.imam-us.org/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/RssComments.aspx?TabID=138&ModuleID=948&ArticleID=156http://www.imam-us.org/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/Tracking/Trackback.aspx?ArticleID=156&PortalID=0&TabID=138http://www.imam-us.org/NewsEvents/OfficialStatements/tabid/138/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/156/Default.aspxHis Eminence was born in the City of Foumin in the Northern villages of Iran in 1334 A.H. and spent his life serving Ahl-ul-Bayt peace be upon them.  He spent part of his time in the Holy City of Najaf as a student under the tutelage of the great scholars such as Sayyid Abu al-Hassan al-Asfahani, and Sayyid Abu al-Qasim al-Khoei may Allah bless their souls.
