The office of Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Sadiq al-Husseini al-Shirazi has announced that Thursday, November 12, 2026, will mark the first day of the month of Jumada al-Thani 1448 AH.

According to Shia Waves Agency, the announcement was issued to inform believers that the crescent moon of Jumada al-Thani had not been established according to Grand Ayatollah Shirazi’s religious criteria.

The statement said that Wednesday would therefore be the final day of Jumada al-Awwal, while Thursday would mark the beginning of Jumada al-Thani 1448 AH.

The office called on believers to observe the announced date in accordance with the religious ruling of Grand Ayatollah Shirazi (may Allah prolong his life).
