Awaiting Official Confirmation
While scientific predictions indicate the sighting of the crescent moon, the final decision will rest with the Ruet-e-Hilal Committee, which is responsible for confirming moon sightings across the country. The committee will convene on March 30 to assess reports from various regions before making an official announcement.
Excitement and Preparations Underway

Once the crescent moon is officially sighted, Muslims across Pakistan will begin their Eid celebrations with early morning congregational prayers at mosques and open grounds. The day is marked by acts of charity, visiting loved ones, and enjoying festive meals. The government is also expected to announce public holidays to allow people to celebrate without disruptions.
Final Announcement Expected Soon
While anticipation is high, the nation awaits the official confirmation from the Ruet-e-Hilal Committee, which will be made closer to the date. Whether Eid falls on March 31 or a day later, the spirit of joy, unity, and gratitude remains at the heart of the celebration.
