Saudi Arabia investigates the crescent of the month of Shawwal and Eid al-Fitr on Saturday evening

Weather of Arabia - The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is investigating the crescent of the month of Shawwal - Eid al-Fitr - for this year, on the evening of Saturday, 29 Ramadan, to determine whether Sunday is the completion of the month of Ramadan, or it will be the first day of Eid al-Fitr 2022 AD.

Astronomical calculations indicate that seeing the crescent of the month of Shawwal will be impossible after sunset on Saturday in all Arab and Islamic countries, including Saudi Arabia, due to the setting of the moon before the sun, and the absence of the crescent moon.

Accordingly, it is expected that Saudi Arabia will announce on Sunday, May 1, the completion of the month of Ramadan, and on Monday, the first day of Eid Al-Fitr
