The Saudi Royal Court announced on Friday evening that the Supreme Court has officially declared Saturday, March 1, 2025, as the first day of Ramadan 1446H.

The announcement follows the successful sighting of the Ramadan crescent at the Tamir and Hotat Sudair observatories, confirming the start of the holy month.

According to report by Saudi Gazette, thick clouds had initially covered the sky at the Tamir Observatory before clearing up, allowing for a successful sighting of the crescent.

One observer in Tamir noted that atmospheric conditions favored moon sighting, with intermittent clouds gradually giving way.

Meanwhile, the UAE-based International Astronomy Center stated that the crescent moon was visible through telescopes in parts of West Asia, most of Africa, and southern Europe, and could be seen with the naked eye in much of the Americas.

The center added that given the crescent’s visibility in various regions of the Islamic world on Friday, most countries are expected to declare Saturday, March 1, as the first day of Ramadan
