Raya will be on 22 april as 20 april, we cant see the moon...

based on lunar visibility map, malaysia is not on the region of lunar can be sight by optical aid.

https://www.astronomycenter.net/icop/shw44.html

refer here to lunar visibility zone/map...

last year we are under the visibility zone with optical aid, hence we raya awal as there the rule if can see the moon, hence it beginning of the new month...

Hope your theory is correct. Personally, prefer Saturday for the first day of Raya, as Friday can be a bit rushed with limited time due to Raya preparations/prayers and Friday prayers as well.

on this map, malaysia is clearly not on the zone where new moon can be seen by any aid as the moon still not set before sun.

compare to 2022-

malaysia on the zone where moon possible to seen by optical aid. which we did last year even not fulfill criteria(calculation), but based on hadis, when we see the moon, mean it already new month(rephrasing the hadis).

BTW, if hari raya(both) fall on friday, you have the choice to choose which solat you want to go...
it is not prediction but based on lunar sighting calculation and astrological data. on map i attached here got few colour which is whit is not possible to see new moon, blue possible to see using aid, cyan can see by naked eye if condition are great and green can be see by naked eye on any condition

[attachmentid=11457573]

You forgot the most important part, if Raya on Sat, 2nd raya will be Sunday, so we get Monday off.

If Raya on Fri, 2nd raya will be Saturday, so Monday no off. laugh.gif
