Confirmed: Monday is the Start of Ramadan For Perth, Western Australia (WA) 2008

According to:

http://alghazzali.org/events/update

Australian Ulama have decided to accept sighting report from Darwin.
Al-Ghazzali Centre disagrees with the sighting report on the basis of opposing scientific and jurisprudential facts.
But according to a majority of Australian ‘Ulama’, 1st of Ramadhan commences on Monday 1st Of September.
Ramadhan Kareem.

Even though it disagrees with the sighting, it acknowledges that according to a majority of Australian ‘Ulama’, 1st of Ramadhan commences on Monday 1st Of September NOT Tuesday the 2nd of September.

Furthermore, Taraweeh Prayer took place in Perth Mosque in the city today (Sunday night). Which confirms that Monday is the fist of Ramadan according to Perth Mosque.

Also, http://moonsighting.com/1429rmd.html reported that the official start is Monday 1st of September according to the Islamic center in Canberra.

Ramadan Kareem to everyone and may Allah accept your fasting.
