Eid al-Fitr – Sunday, May 24, 2020

AsSalaamu Alaikum,

The Ulama Council of New England (UCNE) have announced that based on negative sightings, *the moon was not sighted*. Thus the Islamic lunar month, Ramadan, will complete 30 days, and that the 1st day of the next month, Shawwal, will begin on Sunday, May 24, 2020. May Allah let this (month) pass over us with blessings, Iman, safety, and in the belief of Islam.
