Karachi: The Meteorological Department has issued an important forecast regarding the start of Ramadan 1447 AH.
The first fast across the country is likely to be observed
on February 19, 2026, while the Ramadan moon is likely to be sighted on
February 18.
According to the Meteorological Department, the Ramadan moon
will be born on February 17 at 5:15 pm. By February 18, the moon will be about
26 hours old in Karachi, which will make it suitable for sighting.
The sunset time in the city is 6:25 pm and the moonset time
is 7:24 pm, due to which the chances of seeing the moon in Karachi are good.
According to experts, the weather is likely to be partly
cloudy in most parts of the country, but for the moon to be visible, its age
must be at least 19 hours. However, for more information, the report of the
Meteorological Department and the instructions of local scholars will be
awaited so that the final announcement of the first fast of Ramadan can be
made.
