The crescent moon of Dhu al-Hijjah was sighted a short while ago in Amman, by astronomer Raed Abu Sheikha. An official announcement from the Grand Mufti is awaited. Saudi Arabia and several Gulf states have announced that tomorrow is the first day of Dhu al-Hijjah, and therefore, Friday, June 6, is the first day of Eid al-Adha.
