When the sun sets, the height of the crescent moon in all regions of Indonesia is predicted to be above the horizon between 4° 52.71' and 7° 37.84', with an elongation angle of 8° 23.68' to 10° 12.94'. "Based on the MABIMS criteria, the position of the crescent moon has met the criteria for crescent moon visibility with a height of 3 degrees and an elongation angle of 6.4 degrees," added Kamaruddin Amin.

The results of the calculation and moon sighting will be discussed in the isbat session. "The decision regarding Eid al-Fitr will be announced through a press conference after the isbat session," said Kamaruddin. Previously, the Chairman of the Central Leadership of Muhammadiyah, Haedar Nashir, estimated that Eid al-Fitr 2024 or 1 Syawal 1445 Hijriah will fall on the same day between Muhammadiyah and the government.

"Insha Allah, Muhammadiyah will celebrate Eid al-Fitr on April 10, 2024, and it seems that Eid al-Fitr will be the same between the government and Muhammadiyah," said Haedar at the Muhammadiyah Central Office, Yogyakarta, last Saturday. "The Ramadan is different, but the Eid al-Fitr is the same because there is a difference in the way it is determined," explained Haedar. Regardless of being the same or different, Haedar believes that all layers of society are capable of maintaining tolerance. "Whether the same or different, insha Allah, we have entered a phase of understanding and tolerance," he said.

"To unite and resolve the problem of these differences, said Haedar, Muhammadiyah continues to campaign for the realization of a Single Global Hijri Calendar (KHGT) that is not only applicable to Indonesia but also to Muslims worldwide, so that these differences do not continue to repeat. "So that later this new date will be applicable in all countries. Like the Gregorian calendar that has no differences," said Haedar."
