In Turkey Ramadan starts September 13th, but my Moroccon students tell me it can also be 14th or even 15th. Why this big difference in dates, there is not that much time difference for seeing the moon (they told me that is THE signal). Anyone?

A similar question was posted here last year. This is what I found. Don't remember which source I got it from though..
This is how the date is set:
"Turkey bases itself on the scientific calender to determine the position of the moon, which means that the date is fixed a long time already.
Other people (eg. the Moroccan society overhere) don't base themself on the scientific calender but on the moment on which the new moon above Mecca is visible with the naked eye.
Hence the different dates."

The signal is when the moon of Ramazan born.
İn Kuran,ALLAH said,we fast when we see it,so it just can be different from a country to the other 1 day not more.
So some will have Şaban' the month before ramazan' 29 days,and then Ramazan start,some will have it 30 days and then Ramazan start.
Today is 29 Şaban here,so either tomorrow be Ramazan ,or the day after tomorrow.
Türkiye too check for the moon birth ,and not sintific calculations,that is what i've been told by Turk,and that is why we were different last year too.

Had I still been in Turkey, I would have tried to fast too, eventhough Kadir doesnt do it. We did join the İftar and it was such a nice time. I loved to see the big tents on the street with İftar on it, for the poor and needy to come and eat.
I have already caught a cold in my first week here, and being the only one in a 4 person-household and at school to fast, it is not much of stimulation. However, Im sure I will get the chance to try and test myself again.
I wish everybody a happy holiday and I hope that the awareness of hunger in the world, will last longer than just one month and a party afterwards, but will make people support organisations for countries with a high famine rate.
Good luck!
