According to Dr. Shahid Qureshi, in the light of these data, it will be easy to see the crescent through binoculars from the southern regions of the country, including Karachi and Gwadar, on the evening of March 22. However, seeing such a crescent with the naked eye will be a challenge.

He said that if the first fast is observed on March 23, there is no possibility of seeing the Eid moon on the evening of Ramadan 29. However, if the first fast is observed on March 24, then on the evening of Ramadan 29, the Eid moon will be very clear, bright and thick.
