In Pakistan, the anticipation for Eid al-Adha is building as the country awaits the official confirmation from the Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee. The moon for the month of Zilqad 1445 AH was not sighted, indicating that Shawwal will end on Thursday, May 9. Consequently, Friday, May 10, marks the beginning of Zilqad across Pakistan.
Based on the lunar calendar, if the month of Zilqad spans 29 days, then the month of Zilhaj 1445 Hijri will commence on June 8th. Following this timeline, Eid al-Adha is poised to be celebrated on Monday, June 17th.
However, if Zilqad extends to 30 days, the month of Zilhaj 1445 Hijri will start on June 9th. This would result in Eid al-Adha being observed on Tuesday, June 18th.
Astronomy experts have also weighed in, predicting that Eid al-Adha is likely to be celebrated on June 17th in the Arab countries.
The final confirmation regarding the exact date of Eid al-Adha will be issued by the Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee. As the nation eagerly awaits this announcement, preparations for the joyous occasion are underway across Pakistan.
Stay tuned for updates on the official date for Eid al-Adha and join in the festivities as communities come together to celebrate this important religious holiday.
