Crescent Moon Visibility of Safar 1448 AH

Prediction: The crescent visibility map below for Safar 1448 (RHS) shows that the moon will be born on 14 July 2026 at 09:44 GMT/UT, but it will not be visible by the naked eye in the UK to Morocco region on that date. However, on 15 July 2026, the moon may be visible in Morocco, and in the UK. Hence, Safar will likely start on 16 July 2026 in Morocco and the UK, InShaAllah.
