حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي خَيْثَمَةَ قَالَ : نَا يَحْيَى بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ قَالَ : ثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْأُبُلِّيُّ قَالَ : نَا مِسْعَرُ بْنُ كِدَامٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ قَالَ : شَهِدْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ وَبِهَا ابْنُ عُمَرَ ، وَابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ، فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى وَالِيهَا ، وَشَهِدَ عِنْدَهُ عَلَى رُؤْيَةِ هِلَالِ رَمَضَانَ ، فَسَأَلَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ وَابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ شَهَادَتِهِ ، فَأَمَرَاهُ أَنْ يُجِيزَهَا ، وَقَالَا : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَجَازَ شَهَادَةَ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ عَلَى رُؤْيَةِ هِلَالِ رَمَضَانَ ، وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا يُجِيزُ شَهَادَةً فِي الْإِفْطَارِ إِلَّا شَهَادَةَ رَجُلَيْنِ I " .
Abd al-Malik bin Maysarah (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates: "I was present in Madinah, and Sayyiduna Ibn Umar and Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) were also there. A man came to the governor of Madinah and testified before him that he had sighted the new moon of Ramadan. The governor asked Sayyiduna Ibn Umar and Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) about his testimony, and they both told him to accept that testimony, and said: 'Indeed, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) accepted the testimony of a single man on sighting the new moon of Ramadan, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would not accept any testimony regarding (the new moon of) breaking the fast (Eid) except the testimony of two men.'"
