“This is to inform the Muslim Ummah that Monday, April 12, which is equivalent to the 29th day of Sha’aban 1442AH shall be the day to look for the new moon of Ramadan 1442AH,” the statement read in part.

It also advised Muslims to “report its sighting to the nearest District or Village Head for onward communication to the Sultan.”
