Anticipated Date of Eid AlFatir Morning Prayer (Day After Ramadhan) 2021 Thursday May 13th For Most, Others Might Consider Up to 2 Day Discrepancy

Posted by HCN on Tuesday, May 11, 2021
The reputable Saudi administrators and authorities on the subject, as of now, 5pm EST, have announced that Eid AlFatir will begin at sunset Wednesday, making that day the last day of fasting, last day of Ramadhan, whereat Thursday, the next day May 13th, will be Eid prayer, basically coinciding with the first day of the following Hijri, [lunar] month.
In the USA, a number of congregations will likely go forward with being synchronous to abovesaid announcement.
However, other moon sighting groupings may find a different date, as was for their assertion of the first day of Ramadhan. This referring to in the USA and other locations globally. This year, there are reports of at least a up to a 2 day discrepancy as held by some groupings from the date announced by the Saudi Royal authorities.

A 2 day discrepancy, might have eventualities found cumbersome when a couple of months down the line, the Day of Arafat will be announced, and it is ordinarily the norm for Hajjis (people performing Hajj) to all do the same thing in uniform. Between now and then, what will happen to the phases of the moon are for the most part to be ascertained when they arrive; [a simplistic pragmatic view might hold, that if all goes as they usually go, something unusual might have to happen in order for everyone to be on the same page].
