Looking at today’s moon vindicates Ruet committee decision, Ashrafi says

ISLAMABAD: The Chairman Pakistan Ulema Council Allama Tahir Ashrafi said Thursday the decision by Ruet-e-Hilal Committee to announce Eid feels further vindicated looking at the moon today, ARY News reported.

After they received late moon-sighting testimonies, Ashrafi said those were being verified as per religious jurisprudence and the decision is flawless.
