Chapter: Testimony Of Two Men About Sighting The Crescent Of Shawwal.
Hadith 2339
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ ، وَخَلَفُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ الْمُقْرِئُ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ ، عَنْ رِبْعِيِّ بْنِ حِرَاشٍ ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " اخْتَلَفَ النَّاسُ فِي آخِرِ يَوْمٍ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ ، فَقَدِمَ أَعْرَابِيَّانِ فَشَهِدَا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِاللَّهِ لَأَهَلَّا الْهِلَالَ أَمْسِ عَشِيَّةً ، فَأَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ النَّاسَ أَنْ يُفْطِرُوا " . زَادَ خَلَفٌ فِي حَدِيثِهِ : " وَأَنْ يَغْدُوا إِلَى مُصَلَّاهُمْ " .
Narrated Ribi bin Hirash: On the authority of a man from the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ: People differed among themselves on the last day of Ramadan (about the appearance of the moon of Shawwal). Then two bedouins came and witnessed before the Prophet ﷺ swearing by Allah that they had sighted moon the previous evening. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded the people to break the fast. The narrator Khalaf has added in his version: "and that they should proceed to the place of prayer (forEid)".
