A brief guide to observing the Ramadan crescent. According to astronomical calculations, Monday, March 11, 2024, is scheduled to be the beginning of Ramadan.
The difficulty of seeing the crescent lies in its location at the horizon, as it does not exceed a few degrees before it disappears again. The Moon, by its nature, does not produce light, but rather reflects it, just like the Earth. A faint glow often appears on the dark part of the moon's surface, and this effect is more noticeable when the c Crescent is thin.
