Chand Ke Elaan Mein Role

For a large part of Mumbai's Sunni population, the Mumbai ruet-e-hilal committee run by Raza Academy is the voice they wait for. Its announcement often shapes when local mosques and families begin fasting or celebrate Eid.

If you are tracking moon sighting in Mumbai, the Raza Academy decision is one of the most-followed references in the city and along the Konkan.

Elaan Kaise Aur Kab Hota Hai

Reports of the hilal travel in from across Maharashtra and the Konkan on the 29th evening. Raza Academy examines these witness accounts after Maghrib; if a trustworthy sighting stands, Eid or Ramadan is declared at once, otherwise the month runs its full thirty days.
