For several years, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) has followed separate moon sighting decisions, often celebrating Eid one day earlier than the rest of Pakistan.
- If KPK’s local moon sighting committee spots the crescent moon on the 28th of Ramadan, they will celebrate Eid on March 29, 2025.
- Suppose the Provincial Ruet-e-Hilal Committee in KPK aligns with the national decision. In that case, Eid will be celebrated with the rest of Pakistan on March 30 or 31, 2025.
This regional difference often leads to two Eid celebrations in Pakistan. Still, efforts continue to unite the country under one Eid date.
Will All Regions of Pakistan Celebrate Eid Together in 2025?
A unified Eid celebration across Pakistan is possible under three conditions:
- The moon is sighted nationwide on March 29, ensuring a single date for Eid.
- All religious leaders and local moon sighting committees agree on a single date without independent announcements.
- The government and religious authorities work together to synchronize Eid celebrations across KPK, FATA, and other regions.
Many Pakistanis hope for a single Eid celebration, as it promotes national unity and prevents confusion. The Ruet-e-Hilal Committee will hold a public meeting on March 29, 2025, to finalize Eid dates for all provinces, including KPK.
Conclusion
The final decision on Eid ul-Fitr 2025 in Pakistan and KPK will depend on the moon sighting results on March 29, 2025.
While March 30 and March 31 remain the most expected Eid dates, KPK may observe Eid earlier if their local committees confirm a crescent sighting before the rest of the country.
For official confirmation, stay updated with Ruet-e-Hilal Committee announcements and local government notifications.
