Crescent Moon Visibility of Jumada Al-Ula 1447 AH

Prediction: The crescent visibility map below for Jumada Al-Ula 1447 (RHS) shows that the moon will be born on 21 October 2025 at 12:25 GMT/UT, but it will not be visible by the naked eye anywhere in the UK to Morocco region on that date or the next day. However, on 23 October 2025, the moon may be visible in Morocco, but [may] not in the UK until the next day. Hence, Jumada Al-Ula will most likely start on 24 & 25 October 2025 in Morocco and the UK, respectively (applying the "30-days complete" rule), InShaAllah. [UK Major Lunar Standstills Q&A]
