As the holy month of Ramadan approaches its conclusion, anticipation is building across Pakistan regarding the exact date of Eid-ul-Fitr. The central question on everyone’s mind…

Will Eid be celebrated on Sunday, March 30, or Monday, March 31?

In Pakistan, the sighting of the Shawwal crescent moon is the traditional method for determining the end of Ramadan and the onset of Eid-ul-Fitr. This practice means that the exact date of Eid can vary based on lunar observations and weather conditions.

According to the Ruet-e-Hilal Research Council, the Shawwal moon is likely to be sighted on Sunday, March 30, which would mean Eid falls on Monday, March 31

If this happens, Pakistanis will enjoy an extended 5-day holiday break from Saturday, March 29, to Wednesday, April 2!
