Furthermore, the discrepancies in establishing the beginning of the Zulhijjah month are due to differences in maţla, which is the location where the new moon appears, as well as variations in the reckoning and ru'yah methods. A qualitative method was used for evaluating, characterizing, and exposing its findings. The method of data collection was literature review, which aims to investigate the origins of differences and discover a compromise solution to decrease or eradicate these variations, or at least to comprehend those that cannot be eliminated.
