The Dubai Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has introduced free parking within the emirate in the course of the Hijri New 12 months (1444H) vacation on Saturday, July 30.

All parking areas, besides multi-level parking terminals, will likely be free on Muharram 1.

Saturday, July 30, is official paid vacation for all private and non-private sector staff within the UAE to mark the event.

Muharram 1 marks the beginning of the Islamic new yr (1444H). Its corresponding date on the Gregorian calendar is more likely to fall on Saturday, July 30, as per astronomical calculations.

The Worldwide Astronomy Centre on Friday shared a picture of the crescent of the month of Muharram (1444 AH).
