Therefore , Sunday will be the first day of Eid Al-Fitr, due to the impossibility of seeing the crescent after sunset today.

Astronomical calculations indicate that the sighting of the crescent will be impossible after sunset on Friday with the naked eye or by telescope, due to the setting of the moon before the sun in all Arab countries, in addition to the non-birth of the crescent, where astronomical calculations indicate that the birth of the crescent will be at 8:39 from on Friday evening GMT, after sunset.

As for the Sultanate of Oman, Morocco, and Sudan, these three countries will explore the crescent of the month of Shawwal on Saturday May 23, Ramadan 29, according to the start of their fasting, and therefore the age of the crescent will be more than 19 hours, and the moon will be absent after the sun with its stay in the horizon for an appropriate period of time that makes viewing the crescent easy with the naked eye or The telescope.
