Eid-Ul-Fitr 2025 Moon Sighting LIVE: After praying for the month-long Ramadan period, Muslims around the world are now preparing for the much-awaited festival of Eid-ul-Fitr.
Eid-ul-Fitr, also known as the “festival of breaking the fast,” marks the end of the holy period of Ramadan. During Ramadan, devotees fast from dawn till dusk every day, calling it Roza to the almighty in search of peace, prosperity, and growth.
In India, the holiest period for Muslims, Ramadan 2025, started on Sunday, March 2, after the crescent moon was spotted on March 1. While in Saudi Arabia, Ramadan started a day earlier, on March 1.
The date for Eid-ul-Fitr 2025 will depend on when the moon is spotted in India. If the crescent moon is sighted on March 30, 2025, then Muslims across the nation will mark it as the commencement of Ramadan and celebrate Eid on Monday, March 31.
According to the customs of the Islamic lunar calendar or Hijri, the official confirmation about Eid-ul-Fitr will only come after the crescent moon is spotted. If the moon is not sighted on March 30, then the festival will be celebrated on April 1, 2025.
India usually celebrates Eid a day after Saudi Arabia as the crescent moon is first sighted in the Gulf nation, some parts of India, and a few Western nations.
Devotees will look for the crescent moon in Saudi Arabia on Saturday, March 29. If the moon successfully appears on Saturday night, then the people of Saudi Arabia will celebrate Eid-ul-Fitr on Sunday, March 30.
In case the moon is not visible on Saturday night, people will celebrate Eid on March 31, and April 1 in India.
According to the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, the crescent moon of Shawwal will be cited on the 29th or 30th day of Ramadan 1446 AH, which corresponds to March 29 or 30, as per Mint’s earlier report.
The Shawwal 1446 crescent search today in Saudi Arabia will determine the Day of Eid Al Fitr 1446. The search results will be announced around 6 p.m. (Makkah time) or 8.30 p.m. (IST).
The Crescent Moon will be searched in over 20 Observatories in the Kingdom. The Supreme Court’s Crescent Committee will be seated around 5:30 p.m. to begin deliberations on potential leads from observatories.
According to the official social media post of Abu Dhabi, the Shawwal crescent moon will be observed by using five AI-powered observatories and drones on Saturday, March 29.
“The Shawwal Crescent Sighting Committee, part of @fatwauae, will observe the crescent on Saturday evening, 29 March 2025 (29 Ramadan 1446 AH), at Qasr Al Hosn, Abu Dhabi, using five AI-powered observatories and drones to document the sighting with the highest global standards,” as per the post on platform X.
