Muslims must keep an eye on March11,2024 looking for the Ramadan moon with the Guidance of Route Hilal Committee

Peshawar on March 11 (Monday) for the moon seeing of Ramzan 1445 Hijrah. Suppose the crescent is

start right after the Asr prayers. At the same time, multiple zonal committees will meet in the areas

however, the moon will be easily apparent on March 11. According to specialists the first Taraweeh
prayer will occur on the night of March 11, with a 95 percent chance of the first fast falling on Tuesday
(March 12).

depending on geographic region.

March 10. Additionally, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates have asked their nationals to seek for
the Ramadan moon on the evening of March 10, indicating that the Arab nations would likely enjoy the
first Roza a day earlier than Pakistan, as is common.

conjunction, which is scheduled for 9 a.m. GMT, reported to the International Astronomical Centre. As a
result, Ramadan is scheduled to start on March 11 among multiple nations.

viewing the crescent on the tenth of March
