How Côte d'Ivoire decides
Côte d'Ivoire's religious authority looks for the physical new moon each month rather than relying on a fixed calculation.
COSIM and CODISS confirmed the crescent observed in Bondoukou, setting Ramadan 1446 to begin 2025-03-01. For 1447, the crescent was again sighted in Bondoukou and Korhogo, setting the start at 2026-02-18.
