Frequently asked questions

What time is moonrise in Abu Dhabi today?

Monday, December 8, 2025: moonrise 9:24 PM, moonset 10:13 AM (GST).

Why can't I see the Moon exactly at moonrise time?

Moonrise is when the Moon's centre crosses a flat horizon. Buildings, trees, hills or haze near the horizon delay the first sighting, often by 10–20 minutes — for Karwa Chauth or Sankashti, wait until the Moon is clearly visible.
