It is impossible to see the crescent from the areas located under the red color. Because either the Moon on this day sets before the Sunset and/or the topocentric conjunction occurs after the Sunset.
The crescent is expected to be seen by optical aid only from the areas located under the blue color.
The crescent is expected to be seen by optical aid from the areas located under the magenta color. In these areas the crescent could be seen by naked eye if the atmospheric conditions are superb and the observer is experienced.
The crescent is expected to be easily visible by naked eye from the areas located under the green color.
The crescent cannot be seen from uncolored areas, even though the Moon sets in these locations after the Sunset and the topocentric conjunction occurs before the Sunset, but the Moon is not sufficiently illuminated in order to be seen as crescent even by optical aid.
Kindly notice that the below graph shows the possibility of seeing the crescent from areas between 60 degrees north of Equator down to 60 degrees south of Equator.

في جميع بلدان العالم إلا احتمال ضعيف في بعض مناطق من القارة الأمريكية (رؤية غير شرعية ) بغير العين المجردة .
ولذا وعملا بالقاعدة الشرعية المجمع عليها أنه (( لا يعمل قطر برؤية قطر آخر بعيدا عنه بعدا نائيا ))
وفضلا على العمل بالقاعدة الشرعية أنه (( لكل قطر رؤيته )) الدال عليها حديث سيدنا عبد الله ابن عباس مع كريب
فإن يوم الإثنين 11 مارس 2024 هو من تمام شهر شعبان 1445

When to Observe Sha'ban Waning (OLD) Crescent ?

The geocentric conjunction (Geocentric New Moon) will occur Inshalla on (Sunday 10 March 2024) at 09:00 UT.

Sighting the OLD crescent on (Sunday 10 March 2024) and (Saturday 9 March 2024) is shown in the below graphs using the program Accurate Times by Mohammad Odeh according to Odeh criterion. Where:-

It is impossible to see the OLD crescent from the areas located under the red color. Because either the Moon on this day rises after the Sunrise and/or the topocentric conjunction occurs before the Sunrise.
The crescent is expected to be seen by optical aid only from the areas located under the blue color.
The crescent is expected to be seen by optical aid from the areas located under the magenta color. In these areas the crescent could be seen by naked eye if the atmospheric conditions are superb and the observer is experienced.
The crescent is expected to be easily visible by naked eye from the areas located under the green color.
The crescent cannot be seen from uncolored areas, even though the Moon rises in these locations before the Sunrise and the topocentric conjunction occurs after the Sunrise, but the Moon is not sufficiently illuminated in order to be seen as crescent even by optical aid.
Kindly notice that the below graph shows the possibility of seeing the crescent from areas between 60 degrees north of Equator down to 60 degrees south of Equator.
