Eid-ul-Fitr 2025 Moon Sighting Live: As the holy month of Ramadan is inching to a closure, Muslims across the globe are preparing for Eid-ul-Fitr 2025, a celebration that signifies the completion of a month of fasting and devotion. It is important to note that the date of Eid al-Fitr is determined by the sighting of the crescent moon, which marks the beginning of Shawwal, the tenth month of the Islamic calendar. According to the reports, this year, the Eid-al-Fitr 2025 is expected to be observed either on March 30 or March 31, depending on the moon sighting. Ramadan 1446 AH is expected to end on either March 29 or March 30, 2025, based on the moon sighting. The United States, like many Western countries, follows local moon sighting reports or announcements from Saudi Arabia.
The exact date of Eid-ul-Fitr 2025 will be determined by the sighting of the crescent moon on the 29th night of Ramadan, which falls on March 29, 2025. If the moon is sighted, Eid will be celebrated on March 30. However, if the moon remains unseen, Ramadan will complete 30 days, and Eid will be observed on March 31, 2025.
The Eid break typically lasts three to four days, depending on official sector announcements. It is a time for prayer, charity, family gatherings, and delicious feasts, bringing communities together in celebration.
The National Research Institute of Astronomy and Geophysics in Egypt has confirmed that the Shawwal crescent moon will be born immediately after the conjunction at 1:00 PM Cairo time on Saturday, March 29, 2025. This marks the official moon sighting night.
Saudi government has announced the official holiday schedule for Eid-ul-Fitr 2025:
Public Sector: The last working day will be Monday, 24th of Ramadan 1446 AH.
Private Sector: The holiday begins after work on Saturday, 29th of Ramadan 1446 AH.
Non-Profit Sector: The break also starts after work on Saturday, 29th of Ramadan 1446 AH.
