The Supreme Court in Saudi Arabia confirmed the end of Ramadan and the start of Eid ul Fitr 2023.
The date for Eid ul Fitr has been announced in Saudi Arabia after official observers spotted the crescent of the new moon.Birmingham Live report that Saudi Arabia's Holy Mosques of Masjid Al Haram and Masjid Al Nabawi said: "The crescent for the month of Shawwal 1444 was SEEN today in Tumair and Sudair. Subsequently tomorrow Friday, 21st April 2023 is the day of Eid Al Fitr."
They rely mostly on reports from Sudair because the town has the best elevation and weather for moon visibility. But another astronomer, Adel Al-Saadoun, said: "It is impossible to see the crescent this evening..and I challenge anyone who sees it to photograph it as evidence." GLMCC Head Imam, Sheikh Zakaullah Saleem said: "Firstly, Saudi Arabia has a well-established system for moon sighting that is known for its rigour, employment of advanced technology and trained observers, and has a defined legal and Shariah process for moon sighting, which is not the case in many other countries.
