Shawwal moon not sighted, Pakistan to celebrate Eidul Fitr on Saturday

  • Chairman Ruet-e-Hilal Committee says no testimonies for moon sightings were received from across the country
Published April 20, 2023

The Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee announced on Thursday that the Shawwal crescent moon was not sighted in Pakistan and that the first day of Eidul Fitr will be observed on Saturday, April 22.

Ruet-e-Hilal Committee Chairman, Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad, who presided over the meeting of the central moon sighting committee at the Ministry of Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony, made the announcement in Islamabad.

The meetings of the zonal committees were also held at designated locations across the country.

Earlier, Secretary Auqaf Tahir Raza Bukhari said the Punjab zonal committee’s meeting had ended.

In a brief interaction with the media, Bukhari said the Shawwal moon was not sighted as the weather was cloudy in Lahore. He added that the committee did not receive any testimonies from across Punjab.

There are few things in life funnier than watching these clowns trying to use a telescope. The moon sightings for next year have already been verified by scientific methods, so why do these mullahs still have a job?

@Tulukan Mairandi, Just so you know, SUPARCO gave us our nuclear capability, our nuclear capability gave us nuclear deterrence, our nuclear deterrence destroyed any last fantasy of "akhand bharat", and that is why you and millions of your hindustani buddies swarm over these Pakistani news sites out of frustration and bitterness. Quite ironic when you think about it.
