Ramadan Begins: Yemen's Ministry of Awqaf Confirms Moon Sighting

The Ministry of Awqaf and Guidance announced today, Friday, that the moon sighting has been confirmed. As a result, tomorrow, Saturday, marks the first day of the holy month of Ramadan.

Official Statement on Moon Sighting

Consequently, Saturday, March 1, 2025, will be recognized as the first day of Ramadan. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, “Fast when you see it, and break your fast when you see it.
