Notes In our country, the imsâk time, which was declared by adding the temkin time to the time when the sun was 19 degrees below the horizon until 1982, was changed to -18 degrees in 1983 with the new application of the Presidency of Religious Affairs, and the temkîn practice was completely abolished. The change decision, which caused heated debates and confusion in the public, led to some criticisms and accusations directed at the Presidency. It seems that the criticisms are particularly focused on two issues: First, whether the moment when the light first appears or the moment when it spreads thoroughly should be taken as the basis for determining the dawn, which is the start of the fast. Secondly, whether the sun's elevation angle will be -19 degrees or -18 degrees in determining the dawn. According to the claimants, Islamic scholars prefer the first view and European Christian astronomy scholars prefer the second view on both issues. With its decision to change, DIB abandoned the opinion of Islamic scholars and adopted the opinion of Christians. This article explains the change in the start time of fasting by Prof. Dr. It deals with the examination, analysis and criticism of the criticisms directed by Ahmet Şimşirgil and also expressed by some calendar preparers. The aim of the study is to determine whether the arguments put forward in the criticisms expressed by the claimants are correct. In other words, this study deals with the criticism of the changes made in the imsâk time. In the study, whether the parties' criticisms of the relevant decision of the DIB and the evidence they put forward coincide with the information in basic fiqh and astronomy works are discussed in a comparative manner, based on text analysis. According to the results obtained, there is no consensus among fiqh and astronomy scholars on both issues, and the evidence put forward in the criticisms does not have a quality that proves the claims. The research is important in terms of providing a critical contribution to the current imsâk debates that occupy a large segment of the society and placing the discussions on a scientific basis.
