Saudi Arabia announced on Sunday that Eid Al-Adha, one of two important religious holidays observed by Muslims around the world, will start on Thursday, September 24, Al Arabiya News Channel reported on Sunday. The announcement was made after the kingdom’s official moon-sighting body watched for the Dhul Hijjah crescent, which is the twelfth and final month in the Islamic calendar.
