ISLAMABAD / LAHORE: Pakistan’s national space agency SUPARCO has predicted that the moon marking the start of Muharram-ul-Haram 1447 Hijri is likely to be sighted on the evening of June 26, 2025, depending on weather conditions.

According to SUPARCO, the new moon is expected to be born on June 25 at 3:32 PM. On June 26, by sunset, the moon will be 28 hours and 15 minutes old, which creates favorable conditions for visibility. The time gap between sunset and moonset in coastal areas will be around 75 minutes, supporting easy sighting if skies are clear.

If the moon is sighted, 1st Muharram is expected to fall on Friday, June 27.

In a high-level meeting chaired by Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz, key security measures for Muharram processions and gatherings were finalized.

The Punjab government has approved the installation of iron pipes at sensitive locations to boost protection during Majalis and processions. The Chief Minister directed authorities to start mock drills for Muharram security across the province.

Maryam Nawaz emphasized strict implementation of the Muharram Code of Conduct, warning of zero tolerance for any violations. She ordered law enforcement to take strong action against those spreading hate content on social media, and against unauthorized drone use during religious events.

She also instructed provincial ministers, commissioners, deputy commissioners, and police officials to personally monitor field operations.

A Special Monitoring Unit has been tasked with watching and reporting hate content online. Additional measures include:

  • Water sprinkling ahead of processions to prevent heat-related issues

  • Keeping electricity supply uninterrupted during Majalis and processions

  • Strengthening Hotel Eye and Travel Eye monitoring systems

  • Continuing combing operations

  • Procuring anti-drone technology

The Chief Minister stressed that the SOPs for Muharram should not remain limited to paper, but be fully implemented on the ground.
