Crescent Moon Visibility of Safar 1447 AH
Prediction: The crescent visibility map below for Safar 1447 (RHS) shows that the moon will be born on 24 July 2025 at 19:11 GMT/UT, but it will not be visible by the naked eye in the UK to Morocco region (or anywhere in the world) on that date. However, on 25 July 2025, the moon may be visible in Morocco, but [may] not in the UK. Hence, Safar will likely start on 26 and 27 July 2025 in Morocco and the UK, respectively, InShaAllah.
