Meanwhile, in terms of hilal height as one of the criteria for determining the beginning of the Hijri month, the Ministry of Religion has also undergone adjustments and changes in 2022. The new criteria of MABIMS mention criteria in the form of a hilal height of 3 o and an elongation angle of 6.4o.
