Yes, according to al-Ramli and his father, rahimahuma Allah, its wajib for the astronomer and the one who believes him.

I dont know if anyone else except for al-Ramli and his father holds the view that its wajib. But Ibn al-Rif'a, al-Zarkashi and al-Subki say that its valid to fast reliying on calculations (Bughyat al-Mustarshidin)

just thought of this too. when a person is standed without an idea of where he is in the world- he gets a feeling that it is Ramadhan & with some calculation (counting days or whatever), it is also wajib for him to fast. could this not be the actual calculation spoken about by Imam ramli. I think this also came up in Safina. so sidi do you concider calculation or do you stick to the majority.
