Islamabad: Central Ruet-E-Hilal Committee Together with Zonal Committee, Sunday evening, March 30, 2025 (equivalent to Ramazan 29, 1446 Ah) to see Shawwal Moon marking the potential end of the holy month of Ramadan.

The MoonSighting Committee’s meeting is held at the Ministry of Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony.

Religious scholars, meteorological experts and other stakeholders will consider considering Moon Sighting Reports from all over the country during the session to determine the date of Eid-Ul-Fitr celebrations over Pakistan.

The beginning of the ninth and holiest months in the Muslim calendar – as well as eid holidays and the grieving month of Muharram – is determined by the sight of the new moon.

Last month, Pakistan Space & Upper Atmosphere Research Commission (Suparco) predicted the visibility of Ramadan and Shawwal Crescents using scientific assessments, astronomical calculations and modern observation data.

According to astronomical models, Shawwal Moon will be visible on March 30, indicating that Eid-Ul-Fitr is probably falling in Pakistan on March 31, 2025.

As the observation of the unused eye observation of the crescent moon is a religious obligation to determine the start of the Holy Month, the Committee will investigate testimony from all over the country and formally announce the official commencement of this year’s Shawwal.
