Eid Al Adha Holiday Declared in Telangana: Date Subject to Moon Sighting

Eid Al Adha, a major Muslim celebration celebrated globally, falls on Dhul-Hijjah 10. Telangana’s state government has declared a holiday to commemorate the occasion. The Eid Al Adha holiday is planned to be observed on June 29 and is listed under ‘General Holidays’ in the Telangana State Portal Calendar for 2023.

It is crucial to remember that the Telangana holiday date is subject to vary dependent on Moon sightings. Because the Islamic calendar is based on the viewing of the crescent to determine the beginning of each month, Telangana’s Eid Al Adha celebration is also based on the sighting of the Moon.

On the 29th of Dhul-Qidah (Zu al-Qa’dah), the Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee meets in Hyderabad to officially declare the commencement of the month of Dhul-Hijjah. Their judgement on the sighting of the crescent is crucial in defining the date of Eid Al Adha
