Srinagar, Sat, 21 Mar 2009 ANI

Srinagar, Mar. 21 (ANI): A Jammu and Kashmir based engineer has come out with a 504-year cyclical chart so that countries celebrating Islamic holidays do not face confusion over Islamic calendar dates.

 

"I have revised a lunar calendar for 504-years. The work, the approach is totally unprecedented and in my assessment the whole thing will go a long way in preserving the chaotic conditions that we face time and again," Bilal Ghulam Nabi Mir said.

 

Welcoming Mir's invention, President of Jamiat-Ahle-Hadis has forwarded his project to the Religious Affairs Ministry of Saudi Arabia for further analysis.

 

"I have sent a copy (of Bilal Ghulam Nabi Mir's research work) to the Religious Affairs Ministry of the Saudi Arabia Government, and appealed to them that a great scholar from our state has done such a great job and asked them if it could be taken further," said Molvi Showkat Shah, President, Jamiat-Ahle-Hadis.

 

The Islamic calendar follows the phases of the moon, which plays an important part in change of the dates. (ANI)
