ISLAMABAD: The Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee is set to meet tomorrow for the sighting of Ramazan moon in Peshawar, after evening prayers.
According to the statement issued by the spokesperson, the meeting for the sighting of the Ramazan moon – for Hijri year 1445 – will be administered by Chairman Ruet-e-Hilal committee Maulana Abdul Khabir.
Meanwhile, the meetings of other zonal and district Ruet-e-Hilal committees will be held simultaneously at their respective locations. The final announcement regarding the moon will be made by the chairman himself, based on testimonies received from different parts of the country.
The meteorological department has already predicted the sighting of the Ramazan moon on March 11.
Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates have asked their citizens to look for the Ramazan moon on March 10. This hints that these countries will potentially start Ramazan a day earlier than Pakistan – which is usually the case.
The sacred month, marked by devout dedication, will witness millions of Pakistanis and billions of Muslims globally engaging in fasting from sunrise to sunset, with the duration of fasting spanning between 12 to 17 hours – contingent on geographical locations worldwide.
