To best manage the high influx of travelers often observed during the Eid Al Fitr period, the National Railway Office (ONCF) announced on Wednesday that it has concocted a "special Eid Al Fitr" transport plan.

The amount of zakat for Eid Al Fitr 2019 was revealed this week by the French Council of the Muslim Faith (CFCM). But this amount is once again the subject of a sterile controversy this year.

Long considered to be a period that combines fatigue and a drop in productivity, the holy month of Ramadan seems to bring more serenity to Moroccans at work. This is what a Rekrute survey has just revealed, in which 52% of Moroccan employees surveyed believe that Ramadan has no impact on their professional life.

On the firm instructions of the DGSN, all the wilayas of the police and police districts are strongly mobilized, to strengthen their security system in airports, train stations, bus stations and public spaces, on the eve of Eid al-Fitr.

According to the forecasts of the Moroccan astronomer Abdelaziz Kharbouch Al Ifrani, Eid al-Fitr will be celebrated on June 5 in Morocco, thus marking the beginning of the month of Shawwal 1440.

For those who had already set a reminder for the 2019 baccalaureate exam dates, know that the Ministry of National Education has made some changes to it.

More than two weeks have already passed since the start of Ramadan. The end of the month of fasting is therefore inexorably approaching. However, for many Muslims, certainty is still not yet established as to the precise date of Eid al-Fitr.

As every year, astronomers strive to make public, before the time, the date of Ramadan and that of Eid Al-Fitr, based on calculations. This year, El Hassan Talbi claims that it will be respectively May 7 and June 5. That is, a Ramadan of 29 days.
