Ramadhan 1446 A.H

Moonsighting Report 

Month of Shawwal 1446 AH

Salaam Alaikum,

Based on information received from NASIMCO, we wish to inform the community that there were no verified sightings of the crescent moon on the evening of Saturday March 29, 2025.  Therefore, the first day of Shawwal (Eid-ul-Fitr) will be Monday, March 31st for the entire region of North America.
 

Please Note:

  • During the short break, after Eid salaat tea and tabarruk will be served.  You are requested not to bring breakfast items.
  • The partition will be partially open during the Eid Celebration play so everyone is requested to observe hijab.

Fitra for this year has been set to $10 per head. Fitra becomes wajib when the new  moon of Shawwal is sighted and must be paid prior to Eid Namaaz. It is payable by every Baligh person for oneself and all dependents, temporary or otherwise, regardless of gender and age. It is also Mustahab to pay Fitra for an unborn child.

Payments can be made via the link below or there will also be collection boxes for zakat ul fitra at the center for your convenience on Eid Day.
