Saudi Arabia announced the holy Eid-ul-Fitr holiday. Friday and Saturday are closed weekly in Saudi. That’s why common people of the country are going to get six consecutive days of vacation this Eid.

This holiday will start from next Monday (April 8). The news is from Gulf News.

As per the announcement, the Eid holiday will be from next Monday (April 8) to Thursday (April 11). But since the next two days are closed, the citizens of the country will get six consecutive days off. On March 10, the moon of the holy month of Ramadan was seen in the sky of Saudi Arabia. So March 11 was the first day of Ramadan in the country.

According to the Islamic calendar, Ramadan is the ninth month. During this month, Muslims do not eat from sunrise to sunset.

Meanwhile, on March 17, Gulf News reported that this time, i.e. in 2024, the holy Eid-ul-Fitr can be read on Wednesday (April 10).

According to Ibrahim Al Jarwan, chairman of the board of directors of the Emirati Astronomy Society, the first day of the month of Shawwal this year may fall on April 10. This means that Muslims will observe 30 fasts this time.
