To Establish the New Crescent in Cities of the Same Horizon

27. If the crescent of Ramadan month is sighted in a city, is it sufficient for the cities in which sun sets at the same time or two hours later?

A: If it is ascertained that they share the same possibility in sighting the crescent, it suffices for other cities; the mere difference in the time of sunset is not the criterion.
