🌙 Eid ul Azha 2025: Predicted Dates for UAE and Pakistan

As Muslims around the world recently celebrated Eid al-Fitr, attention is now turning to the next major Islamic festival: Eid ul Azha (Eid al-Adha). Astronomers have begun releasing forecasts for when Eid ul Azha 2025 will likely be observed, based on lunar observations and expected moon visibility.


🔭 What is Eid ul Azha?

Eid ul Azha, also known as the Festival of Sacrifice, is the second of two major Islamic holidays. It commemorates the willingness of Prophet Ibrahim (AS) to sacrifice his son in obedience to Allah’s command. The date of Eid is determined by the Islamic lunar calendar, specifically the 10th day of Zul-Hijjah, which begins with the sighting of the new moon.


📌 Key Astronomical Predictions

🌍 In the United Arab Emirates (UAE):

  • According to the Emirates Astronomy Society, Eid ul Azha 2025 is likely to be observed on Friday, June 6, 2025.
  • The Zul-Hijjah moon is expected to be sighted on the evening of Monday, May 27, 2025.
  • The first day of Zul-Hijjah will most likely fall on Tuesday, May 28, 2025.
  • The moon will rise at 7:02 AM and remain visible for 38 minutes after sunset, making it ideal for moon sighting.

🗣️ Statement by Astronomers:

Ibrahim Al Jarwan, Chairman of the Emirates Astronomy Society, emphasized that the final Eid date will depend on the official local moon sighting, as per Islamic tradition.

🏖️ UAE Public Holidays:

  • Eid holidays are expected from 9th to 12th Zul-Hijjah (1445 AH).
  • Residents may get a four-day public holiday, subject to official confirmation.

🇵🇰 In Pakistan:

  • Astronomers in Pakistan predict Eid ul Azha will likely fall on Saturday, June 7, 2025.
  • The final date will be announced by the Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee after official moon sighting.
  • The moon is expected to be visible on May 27, 2025, similar to the UAE prediction.
