Footage shows Muslims in Bukittinggi City, Indonesia gathering to see the new crescent moon appearing in the sky on Saturday, April 22.

The clip shows how they look at the sky without any tools to determine when to end the Ramadan fast and start Eid al-Fitr.

Eid al-Fitr marks the end of the Holy month of Ramadan.

The sighting of the crescent moon varies across countries, resulting in different dates for the celebration of this holiday.

Muslims across the world start the “festival of breaking the fast” by performing morning prayers followed by joyous family gatherings.
