The crescent moon for the month of Jumadius Sani was not sighted in Bangladesh's sky. Consequently, the holy month of Jumadius Sani will begin in the country from Thursday.
Efforts were made to sight the moon at various locations across the country on Tuesday evening (November 10). However, as the moon was not visible in the sky, the ongoing month of Jumadil Awal will complete its count on Wednesday (November 11), and the month of Jumadius Sani will commence from Thursday (November 12).
Decision on Moon Sighting
The decision was announced by the National Moon Sighting Committee. The announcement came following the failure to sight the Jumadius Sani moon anywhere in the country's sky. The month holds special significance for the Muslim community.Meanwhile, due to the moon not being sighted, Wednesday (November 11) will be observed as the final day of the month of Jumadil Awal. The new month will subsequently begin the following day, Thursday.
