Astronomically:
The crescent will set before the sun, at sunset next Monday, corresponding to the 29th of Ramadan, so there is no crescent on the horizon after sunset, Ramadan is 30 days long, and Eid al-Fitr is next Wednesday.(The astronomical calculation is taken into account in denial, not in proof). @Zeyad_jehani pic.twitter.com/wJLREvZZRs

It is likely that #Eid_Al-Fitr will be on Wednesday 10/1/1445 AH according to the calendar and corresponds to April 10, 2024 AD, and the Supreme Court will confirm or deny this, and God knows best pic.twitter.com/0n2gUig3qm- Abdulaziz bin Muhammad Al-Hussaini (@A__alhussaini) April 3, 2024
