The Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee announced on Friday that the Ramadan moon was not sighted in Pakistan, and therefore, the first fast will begin on Sunday, March 2.
The committee, chaired by Maulana Abdul Khabeer Azad, convened in Peshawar to observe the moon sighting. In a press conference following the meeting, Maulana Azad confirmed that no credible testimony of the moon’s sighting had been received from any part of the country.
