Marhaba everyone!

do you know what the official dates for Ramadan and following Eid are this year?

I need to know the holidays after Ramadan - weekend only? weekdays?

It would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance

Ramadan is expected to start on Wednesday,11th August if the new moon for Ramadan is spotted in the evening of tuesday after maghrib salaah,if it isn't,then Ramadan will start on Thursday,12th August INSHAALLAH.

Eid al fitr again depends on the sighting of the Shawaal moon,it could be on the 9th or 10th September ALLAH SWT knows best.

Ramadan will probably start on 11th August (no way for 10th Aug) and if not 12th August for sure. Eid will be most possibly on Friday, 10th Septemebr 2010.

it always based in the moon.. but the Doha modern printing press already did release the Ramadan Timings 1431 H (2010 C.E.)

saying it will start on Wed. 11, August.

end up Sept. 9.

Note: some are starting from Aug. 10.

However from Govt. Corporation the official Holiday will start on Sept. 10 till 16.

BTW your photos has a great tone treatment.
