Hyderabad: The Holy Month of Ramzan will begin in Hyderabad from Monday night as the crescent was not sighted in the city or its surroundings on Sunday night.

The Central Ruiyat-e-Hilal Committee announced that the holy month of Ramzan will begin from Monday night and the first Roza or fasting will be observed on Tuesday.

The committee said that the moon was not sighted in Hyderabad or any other nearby cities or towns. Therefore, Monday will be 30th of Shaban and the first Roza will be observed on Tuesday.

This year, the timing of fasting or Roza will be of 14 hours and 23 minutes on the first day. While the Saheri timing will end at 4.20 am, the first Iftar will be at 6.43 pm. However, the Rozas will become longer every day and the last Roza will be of 14 hours and 44 minutes.

There will be four Fridays in this year's Ramzan. The Shab-e-Qadar, one of the three holy nights, will fall on June 1 (Saturday night) and the Jumatul Vida, the last Friday of Ramzan, will be celebrated on May 31.

If moon is sighted, then Eid-ul-Fitr will be celebrated on June 5 (Wednesday). Else, it will be celebrated on June 6.

Special arrangements have been made at all mosques across the State for the conduct of Taraveeh prayers in the night.

In Mecca Masjid, nearly 8,000 to 10,000 Muslims are expected to participate in the Taraveeh prayers where Hafiz Moulana Rizwan Qureshi will supervise the reciting of three Paras (chapters) of the holy Quran each day for the first 10 days of Ramzan.

Similarly, the management committees of different mosques have made arrangements for the conduct of Taraveeh prayers.

Arrangements have also been made at several places for Simaat-e-Quran, the congregations where holy Quran is recited. Such gatherings are primarily attended by women.

It may be mentioned here that the holy month of Ramzan has begun in the Arab countries on Sunday night and the first Roza will be observed on Monday across the Middle-East.
