Eid-Ul-Fitr 2023: As the Islamic holy month of Ramadan draws to a close, Muslims around the world prepare to celebrate Eid-ul-Fitr which is one of the most important festivals celebrated by Muslims all around the world. It marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan, during which Muslims observe fasts and engage in acts of worship and spiritual reflection. Eid-ul-Fitr is a joyous occasion, celebrated with great enthusiasm and fervor by Muslims of all ages. The festival is usually celebrated on the first day of Shawwal, the tenth month of the Islamic calendar, after the sighting of the new moon.
The exact date may vary depending on the sighting of the moon in different parts of the world. Eid-ul-Fitr is a time of celebration, forgiveness, and renewal of one's faith and commitment to serving humanity. It is a reminder of the importance of unity, love, and compassion in our lives, and a time to reflect on the values of Islam and how they can guide us towards a better and more fulfilling life.

Eid ul Fitr 2023 Moon Sighting in Pakistan
The Islamic calendar is lunar and based on the moon’s sighting compared to the Gregorian calendar, a solar calendar. Determining the date of the Eid Ul Fitr depends on the sighting of the crescent moon (a day after the new moon). As such, the process of determining the date of the Eid Ul Fitr can only be performed under cover of the night. Should the crescent moon not be spotted, Ramadan continues for another day.
