Morocco Moon to Observe Ramadan 2024 Crescent Moon Sighting on Sunday
If the crescent moon sighting on Sunday night is confirmed, Monday will mark the beginning of the holy month of Ramadan.
Early astronomical forecasts indicate that Ramadan 2024 in Morocco will commence on Tuesday, March 12, while Saudi Arabia and other Arab nations are expected to start fasting on March 11.
Experts anticipate a 29-day fast in Morocco this year.
Saudi Arabia, along with other countries, is also set to conduct crescent moon sighting for Ramadan on Sunday.
Ramadan holds significant cultural importance in Morocco, celebrated with distinctive traditions and delicious cuisine throughout the month.
In addition to culinary delights, Ramadan witnesses a surge in religious devotion. Evenings are marked by special Taraweeh prayers, drawing people of all ages to mosques nationwide.
Charitable activities also see a rise during Ramadan as Muslims strive to deepen their spiritual connection. Business hours adjust accordingly, with administrations closing early, and activity resuming after Taraweeh prayers at night.
