The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) on Thursday said that there are no chances of Muharram-ul-Haram 1448 AH moon sighting on June 15 , as the interval between the birth of the moon and sunset will be insufficient for crescent visibility.
In an advisory issued today, the Met Office said that weather conditions are expected to remain clear in several parts of the country, but the moon will likely be born at 7:54am on June 15, so it would not be visible by sunset on Zil Hajj 29.
Wifaqul Ulama urges Muslims in Britain to attempt to sight the moon for *Muḥarram 1448* on the evening of Monday 15th June 2026. This will be the 29th Dhū al-Hijjah 1447.
We follow the same Moonsighting process for all 12 months and all proceedings will be live on Twitter.
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
