Sources: Gulf News, Xpress, UAE public holidays, and Muslim calendar 2007. The Dean of Humanities and Sciences College and Chairman of Arab the Union for Astronomy and Space Sciences, Dr Humaid Al Nuaimi, recently issued a statement saying that his estimations come in line with the calculations followed in UAE for the upcoming date of the first day of Ramadan (September 13, not a public holiday in the UAE, but all cafes and restaurants remain closed until sundown, from that date until Eid al-Fitr) and Eid al-Adha (December 20). Note that both dates also agree with the Q++ Studio page of predicted Muslim 2007 dates.
