Crescent Moon Visibility of Shaban 1447 AH
Prediction: The crescent visibility map below for Shaban 1447 (RHS) shows that the moon will be born on 18 January 2026 at 19:52 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 20 January 2026, the moon may be visible in the UK and most of the world. Hence, Shaban is most likely to start on 21 January 2026 in the UK and Morocco, InShaAllah.
