Riyadh: The Supreme Court has called upon Muslims all over the country to observe the new moon in Saudi Arabia. The Supreme Court on Saturday issued a notice to observe the birth of the new moon on April 8.
It has been requested that those who see the birth of the moon with naked eyes or through binoculars should report the information to the nearest court and testify and record the visible birth of the moon before the court.
