In line with Saudi Arabia and other Middle Eastern countries, over 50 villages in Chandpur, including the Sadra Darbar Sharif in Hajiganj, are celebrating Eid-ul-Fitr today. On Saturday night, Pirzada Maulana Mufti Arif Chowdhury stated, "We determine our fasting and Eid celebrations based on moon sightings as per the Quran and Hadith, not just by following Saudi Arabia." Necessary arrangements have been made for Eid prayers, with the first congregation at Darbar Sharif ground at 9 AM, led by Pirzada Maulana Mufti Zakaria Chowdhury. The tradition of following the Saudi lunar calendar for Eid celebrations was introduced in 1928 by the Pir of Sadra Darbar Sharif.

With millions leaving Dhaka for Eid, metro rail ridership has declined.

The Australian Fatwa Council has declared Monday, March 31, as the date for Eid-ul-Fitr. Due to its geographical location, Australia is often among the first to announce Ramadan and Eid dates. The council based its decision on lunar calculations, confirming that the new moon of Shawwal will be born on March 29 at 9:57 PM and visible on March 30, making Ramadan 30 days long.
