The Shaban moon has been sighted and the first of Shaban will fall on March 26, the Ruet-e-Hilal Committee said Wednesday.

Shab-e-Barat will be observed on April 8, said committee’s chairperson Mufti Muneeb-ur-Rehman.

The month of Ramazan is likely to start from 26 or 27 April, depending on the moon sighting.
