السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
Dear Brothers/Sisters in Islam,
Please make an effort to sight the Hilal on Saturday, March 29, 2025, for the month of Shawwal 1446 AH.
Take your important part in this blessed effort.
Alhamdulillah, by the joint effort of the Ulama and the tremendous cooperation from brothers and sisters throughout the States, we have revived this forgotten Sunnah of moonsighting throughout the year in many localities, all across the nation.
We make a humble appeal to all community members to report ALL efforts, both positive or negative, to the Central Hilal Committee. Please include the location, exact time, number of people who saw and the total number who tried, the location of the crescent in the sky, and the orientation of the crescent.
JazakAllah Khair,
Central Hilal Committee (CHC)
