The Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs (NSCIA), under the leadership of its President-General and Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar III, has urged Muslims in Nigeria to look out for the crescent of Sha’aban 1445AH after sunset on Saturday, 29th Rajab, 1445AH (February 10, 2024) ahead of this year’s Ramadan fasting.

The Deputy Secretary-General of the NSCIA, Prof Salisu Shehu, stated  this in a statement on Friday.

He said it was important to note that the moon appears and can be sighted usually long (even bearing other environmental factors) after the conjunction has taken place.
