Episode 2: Ramadan, Muslim Disunity and the Caliphate Solution The Caliphate Podcast

    • Islam

Our disunity as a Muslim Ummah is painfully apparent every Ramadan. We  cannot agree on when to begin fasting and when to celebrate Eid. This  reality is pointed out with glee by the enemies of Islam. Even countries  which are neighbours announce the beginning and end of Ramadan on  different days. It seems that when it comes to this issue (among a vast  array of others), we are still suffering from the historical decisions  of the colonial powers which divided our lands (as was the case with the  secret Sykes-Picot agreement of 1916, which partitioned the Ottoman  Caliphate). This chaos and fitna is further compounded by the  announcements of the ignoble regime in Arabia, which in the past has  declared that the moon has been seen when in fact its sighting would  have been impossible.

The solution to this predicament is the same as the solution to so many of the problems facing the Ummah, namely the Caliphate.
