In the Name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Announcement Concerning:
The Crescent Moon of the Holy Month of Ramadan, 1441 A.H.
To the respected believers in North America,
Peace be upon you.
The Moon-Sighting Committee of the Council of Shia Muslim Scholars of North America announces that Friday, April 24th, 2020 will be the last day of the month of Shaban and that Saturday, April 25th, 2020, will be the first day of the holy month of Ramadan, 1441 A.H. for the entire region of North America.
This determination is based on the fact that there were no verified sightings of the crescent moon by the naked eye at sunset on Thursday, April 23rd, 2020 in any region of North America.
Ramadan Mubarak! May Almighty God accept your fasting and good deeds. We ask God, the Most Merciful, to bring a swift end to the current pandemic and grant a quick recovery to all those afflicted. And as always, we ask God, the Most High, for success in performing good deeds and to hasten the Return of Our Master, Imam Mahdi (p).
On behalf of the Crescent Committee,
Sayyid M. Rizvi, Secretary-General
