D&T Moonquest: Dhu al-Qa’da 1447

All ages welcome.
All creeds welcome.

Join us as we search the skies just after sunset for the new moon. Together we’ll honor the beginning of another lunar month!

Mankind’s first calendar derives from the intentional observation of the moon and her phases. This remains a sacred tradition amongst Muslim peoples to the present day.

They ask you (O Prophet) about the phases of the moon. Say, ‘They are a means for people to determine time and pilgrimage.’

This is a family friendly event. A moon-sighting is never guaranteed, but we get to hang out, have some snacks, and enjoy a sunset together.

Meet us at Camp One in Placerville and we’ll caravan to our sighting location. Feel free to bring some munchies. Bundle up and don’t forget your water and a prayer mat!

Optional: Binoculars

Inclement weather obscuring the sky will cancel this event.

There is no fee for this event, but clicking the registration button will allow us to optimize our hospitality, God willing.
