Here you go:

$thisMonthsFirstDay = (new DateTime('first day of this month'))->format('l');

Also always take a look into the documentation, you can learn a lot from there.

You could simply do the following:

echo date("l", strtotime("2021-09-01")); // Wednesday
echo date("l", strtotime("2021-08-01")); // Sunday
