The announcement of sighting of the moon was made by the Saudi Supreme Court, confirming the start of the holy month of fasting for Muslims across the country.

The moon sighting, which marks the beginning of Ramadan, was confirmed after careful observation by local committees.

This marks the start of a month-long period of reflection, prayer, and community for Muslims around the world.

Fasting during Ramadan is one of the five pillars of Islam and is considered mandatory for all healthy Muslims.

Meanwhile, the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs, presided over by the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar, has urged Muslims to look out for the 2025 Ramadan moon from Friday, February 28, 2025.

The Sultan made the call on Thursday in a statement signed by the Secretary General of the NSCIA, Prof Ishaq Oloyede.

“The council hereby enjoins Muslims all over the country to be on the lookout for the Ramadan crescent on the night of Friday, 28th of February 2025 and await the official announcement by the President-General of NSCIA on the commencement of the 1446 AH Ramadan fast,” the statement read.
