There is little chance of seeing the moon tonite (Thursday 14th) unless you are on the ISS orbiting the earth!

The crescent was seen using the technique of astronomical imaging. *** Update
The crescent of the Shawwal moon has been sighted in Jebel Hafeet, Al Ain, the International Astronomy Center announced on Thursday. The crescent was seen using the technique of astronomical imaging, and the moon wasn’t spotted with the naked eye, the astronomy centre added. So eye siting may not necessarily apply as a criteria for the hilal it seems.
