A meeting of the National Moon-Sighting Committee will be held today (13 August) to observe the crescent moon of the holy Rabiul Awal month of 1448 Hijri and determine the date of Eid-e-Miladunnabi (SAW).
The meeting will be held at 7pm, after Maghrib prayers, at the Baitul Mukarram meeting room of the Islamic Foundation, with Religious Affairs Minister Kazi Shah Mofazzal Hossain (Kaikobad) in the chair.
In a press release, the Islamic Foundation urged people to inform the authorities if the crescent moon of Rabiul Awal is sighted anywhere in Bangladesh through the following telephone and fax numbers, or by contacting the deputy commissioner of the respective district or the upazila nirbahi officer (UNO).
