The Crescent ๐ŸŒ™ fr the month of Shawwal 1443 was NOT SEEN today, subsequently:

Monday 2nd May 2022 will be the day of Eid Al Fitr.

The month of Ramadan 1443 will complete 30 days tomorrow. We are pleased to bring to the known of all Muslims around Sierra Leone and the world at large that fasting continues tomorrow and Monday 2 May 2022 the day of Eid Al Fitr.

The festival of Eid al-Fitr, the Festival of Fast-breaking, is an important religious holiday celebrated by Muslims worldwide that marks the end of Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting.ย  The holiday celebrates the conclusion of the 29 or 30 days of dawn-to-sunset fasting during the entire month of Ramadan.

As the date of Eid depends on the sighting of the moon, there may be variations in the exact date that is celebrated around the world. The announcement of the exact dates of Eid Al-Fitr may not happen until close to the start of Ramadan.
