"Rukyah", The New Moon Of Ramadan In Malaysia

Officers of Malaysia's Islamic Authority use a theodolite to perform 'rukyah,' the sighting of the new moon that signals the start of the holy month of Ramadan in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, on February 28, 2025. Muslims in Malaysia begin fasting on Sunday, March 2. Muslims scan the sky at the start of the lunar calendar's ninth month in search of the new moon to proclaim the beginning of Ramadan, Islam's holiest month, during which observant believers fast from dawn to dusk.
