The astronomical calculations that were tested by the Arab Weather team indicate that the moon will precede the sun by sunset on the night of the Ramadan crescent 1444-2023, and the moon will set at 5:54 pm, while sunset will be at 6:05 pm, which makes it impossible to see it. Consequently, it is expected that Saudi Arabia will announce on Wednesday, March 22, the completion of Sha`ban, and on Thursday, March 23, the first day of Ramadan .

 

Astronomical calculations also indicate that the matter will apply completely to all Arab countries for the same astronomical circumstance, which is represented by the setting of the moon before the sun, and God knows best.
