The National Research Institute of Astronomy & Geophysics (NRIAG) announced today that April 25 will mark the Easter holiday, known as Sham El-Nessim, and it will come during Ramadan, on a Monday.
Sham Al Nasim is the first Monday following Resurrection Sunday for the Eastern Orthodox Christians that will mark April 24th, and the holy prayers for Easter will be headed by Pope Tawadros II on April 23, Saturday.
In the same context, tomorrow, Saturday, the Holy Week which is known by the Suffering Jesus Christ, will start according to the Eastern Orthodox Church calendar with Holy Saturday or Lazarus Saturday.
It is worthy to mention that NRIAG asserted early this week that this Ramadan will be a 30-day-month according to the results of the institute’s latest astronomical studies.
Therefore, the beginning of Eid Al Fitr will mark May 2nd, and its prayer will be at 5:37 in Cairo time.
