Nation's Astronomical Institute sets Rabi' al-Awwal 1448 AH start
The National Institute for Astronomical Research announced that the first day of Rabi' al-Awwal 1448 AH will begin astronomically on Friday, August 14, 2026, based on the direct conjunction of the lunar crescent shortly after its occurrence at 8:38 PM Cairo time on August 12, 2026. The calculations indicate that the crescent will not be visible at sunset in Egypt and most Arab and Islamic countries, as the conjunction occurs after sunset, making it impossible to observe the moon that day. By analyzing the timing of the crescent's sunset in various cities, it is expected that Thursday, August 13, 2026, will mark the end of Sha'ban, with Rabi' al-Awwal starting on August 14. This announcement is part of the Institute’s efforts to provide precise astronomical dates for Islamic occasions.
