His tweet goes as “As we celebrate Eid tomorrow on 12 may 2021, our thoughts and prayers will be with the families of missing persons, of those who’ve been killed extra-judicially and by terrorists and we will be praying for peace in the region,”
Earlier, it was reported that in an attempt to ensure that Eid ul Fitr 2021 is celebrated / announced the same day across the country this year, Ruet-i-Hilal Committee members have started approaching and persuading the clerics who had publicly opposed the announcement related to Shawwal moon sighting by the national body in the past.
It is pertinent to mention here that Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) had couple of days before predicted that the chance of sighting the new moon of Shawwal 1442 AH on the evening of May 12 i.e. 29th of Ramadan (Wednesday) is almost none
As per PMF, the Eid ul Fitr 2021 date in Pakistan (1st Shawwal) will most likely fall on Friday.
Weather Dept of Pakistan in a statement said that the new moon of Shawwal, 1442 AH will be born on 12 May, 2021 (Wednesday)
The crescent of Shawwal, the 10th month of the Islamic lunar calendar, will most likely to be sighted on Thursday evening, the May 13 and Eid ul Fitr will be announced accordingly.
Thus the Eid ul Fitr 2021 date in Pakistan will fall on Friday (May 14) and not today as claimed by Dawar.
