ISLAMABAD: The moon for the month of Jumada al-Thani was not sighted on the evening of November 10, leading to the announcement that Eid Milad-un-Nabi will be celebrated on November 12 across Pakistan.

The Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee, chaired by Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad, convened in the capital to observe the moon sighting. Despite hopes for visibility, the committee confirmed that the moon was not seen, adhering to traditional Islamic practices for lunar months.

This decision holds significant implications for the Muslim community in Pakistan, as Eid Milad-un-Nabi, which commemorates the birth of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), is a major religious event. The announcement allows families and communities to prepare for celebrations, including prayers, gatherings, and charitable acts.

Looking ahead, the Ruet-e-Hilal Committee will continue to monitor lunar sightings for future months, ensuring that religious observances align with Islamic traditions. Citizens are encouraged to participate in the upcoming celebrations with reverence and joy.
