Explanation

Ramzan ka chand dekhne ki dua sirf chand ki khushi manana nahi hai, balki naye mahine ke liye Allah se barkat aur hifazat mangna hai. Is dua mein hum "Salaamati" aur "Aman" ki dua karte hain, kyunki roze aur ibadat ke liye sehat aur pur-sukoon mahol ka hona zaroori hai. Is dua ka ek khaas hissa hai: "Mera aur tumhara Rab Allah hai"—yeh chand ko mukhatib karke kaha jata hai takay yeh baat saaf ho jaye ke chand sirf ek nishani hai, jabki asli taqat aur ibadat ke layak sirf Allah hai. Yeh dua hamare imaan ko taza karti hai aur Ramzan ke muqaddas mahine ka agaz ek nek niyat se karti hai.

Is there a Quranic Or Hadith reference?

Yeh dua Hadith se sabit hai. Ise Imam Tirmidhi (Hadith: 3451) aur Imam Ahmad ne apni Musnad mein riwayat kiya hai. Hazrat Talha bin Ubaidullah (R.A) farmate hain ke Rasoolullah ﷺ jab bhi naya chand dekhte thhe, toh yeh dua parha karte thhe. Quran mein Surah Al-Baqarah (Ayat 185) mein Ramzan ki fazilat ka zikr hai, aur naye chand (Ahillah) ke baare mein Surah Al-Baqarah (Ayat 189) mein bataya gaya hai ke yeh logon ke liye waqt ki nishaniyan hain.
