Dhul Hijjah Crescent Moon Sighted In Saudi Arabia
The crescent moon for the Islamic month of Dhul Hijjah, during which the annual Hajj pilgrimage takes place, has been sighted, the Supreme Court announced on Tuesday.
This means that the pilgrimage — which all healthy and wealthy Muslims are required to undertake once in a lifetime — will start on June 4 with the pilgrims gathering in the Tent City of Mina. The day of Arafah will fall on June 5.
Muslims who are not performing the pilgrimage this year will celebrate Eid Al-Adha on June 6.

The Kingdom has announced a weeklong Eid holiday for both public and private sector workers.
