They are well 1.2 million Muslims in Italy and in Europe Friday, July 20,
2012 celebrating the beginning of the month of Ramadan, which ends Aug. 18
next.
It 'was the "European Council of Fatwa and Research", an organization chaired by Sheikh Yusuf Al-qardawi based in Dublin, to make the announcement of the dates of Ramadan, determined each year according to complicated astronomical calculations.
These calculations "have set - written by the Dublin Council - that the moon of the month of Ramadan for the year 1433 of the hegira born at 4:24 a.m. GMT, Thursday, July 19, 2012, which corresponds to 7:24 a.m. in Mecca."
For this European body of fatwa and research will be possible to observe the moon in most Latin American countries and a large region of southern Africa.
According to this methodology, which does not take into account geographical differences, the Council says that the beginning of the month of Ramadan of the year 1433 of the hegira, therefore, will be Friday, July 20, 2012.
During this period, practicing Muslims must abstain - from dawn to dusk - from drinking, eating, smoking and sexual pursuits. Everything to commemorate the great event in which Muhammad would receive revelation from the Archangel Gabriel, that is, the Koran, the sacred book of Muslims. Who is unable to fast (because they are ill or on vacation) can also be raised by the precept, but as soon as possible, must recover the fasting month later.
Precisely for this fast the work is slowed down, while you go to the mosque for more personal prayer.
When the sun sets the fast is broken. Tradition dictates that you should eat a date because that was the Prophet. Alternatively you can drink a glass of water.
What the Muslims are preparing to live "could be for you and all believers of other faiths, particularly Christians, a time of fruitful development of mutual understanding and mutual listening and strengthening of friendship and mutual esteem, conditions necessary to develop, in compliance with the principles enshrined in our Constitution, civil coexistence that actually leads to peace, "they write by the Organizing Committee of the Tenth Day of the ecumenical Christian-Islamic dialogue of October 27, 2012. "And it is the Peace - add more by this Committee - to be today greatly endangered by the emergence of new and terrible scenes of war from the Middle East. And it is the Peace, as we learned in these eleven years of fruitful and close relationship of friendship and mutual esteem, to be the deepest yearnings of Muslim involved in the way of God is precisely one of the cornerstones Peace of our Constitution Republican art. 11 expresses the rejection of war and its monstrosities. "
Finally, remember that the day of the eleventh edition of the ecumenical Christian-Islamic dialogue of the next October 27, 2012, will focus on the encounter between Christian and Muslim communities to "Islam, Christianity, Constitution: Christians and Muslims in comparison with the secular nature of the State.
