Thanks for the link. In the Ramadan calenders that I have obtained from the local mosques , I have noticed that Eid will be on August 19 !! That means, they expect to see the moon on August 18. But, according to your link, the moon will not seen from Europe on that day. On Saturday, August 18, 2012, it can be easily seen in Southern Africa, Central and South Americas. On August 19, it can be seen in rest of the whole world (See visibility curves). The forum members from Germany are requested to give some feedback about their local moonsighting.
