A zigzag line beginning from the North Pole passes through Bering Strait between Russia and America, close to Fiji and Samoa Islands separating the two and ends at the South Pole. This line serves as a boundary for the two groups of the West or the East Kiblah and different Fridays. The first Jumu'a prayer is performed in Russia and Fiji islands while the last Zuhar prayer of Thursday is performed in America and Samoa islands. The last Jumu'a prayer in the world is performed in America and Samoa islands on the next day with a difference of about 24 hours or one day! This shall be observed in fasting and Eid too in this place, but they perform it on the same Day of the week! This is natural and the Shariah allows it. This shall not happen at any other place on the Earth and it will not be permitted. The Shariah does not allow fasting for one group and feasting for another on the same Day of the week. It is forbidden (Haram) in the Shariah. This may happen at different places without knowing due to lack of communication. But with knowledge it will be Haram in the Shariah. The line, which separates the two groups, the west and the east, coincides with the International Date Line established by the non-Muslim scientists in 1886AD. |
