Moonsighting Committee Worldwide (MCW) is growing. It has members from all over the world who report their observations regarding moonsighting on a regular basis. These are individuals who try to observe the crescent moon, because they understand the importance of moonsighting for establishing the Islamic Lunar Months. If you are willing to send your crescent observation report, whenever possible, we will honor you as a member of MCW (Membership is free).
