Eid al-Fitr: North African scientists and astronomers did not agree on the end date of Ramadan
# Morocco : The date of Eid al-Fitr, marking the end of the holy month of Ramadan, is unanimous among scientists. This year, the Maghreb countries can celebrate Eid al-Fitr together. However, for Eid al-Fitr, almost most scientific organizations and astronomical associations are unanimous on the holiday date to mark the end of Ramadan. As a result, on the basis of this scientific data, Eid al-Fitr will be celebrated on 13 May. Thus, scientists and astronomers convert on Thursday the 13th to the first day of rice month and hence Eid al-Fitr.
