I'd like to ask if question about the introduction of utilities or methods to help Muslims in some acts of worship.
For example: a Calendar or calculation method to determine the new moon.
Are questions like these on-topic?

@goldPseudo well i think a calendar or methods to calculate the moon phases have been developped in the golden ages of islamic caliphats but i'd like to know when scholars introduced or accepted them as a utillity for declaring or calculating important dates like 1st day of Ramadan ... – Medi1Saif♦ Jul 9 '16 at 7:19

I found a question which is on similar topic: Global Islamic Calendar
IMHO If this question has place in this site yours may have a place also.
