Beginning of the Musnad of Ibn Abbas
Musnad Abi Ya'la 2388 — he said: I am amazed at those people who go
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ : تَعَجَّبْتُ مِمَّنْ يَتَقَدَّمُ الشَّهْرَ ، وَقَدْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : إِذَا رَأَيْتُمُوهُ فَصُومُوا ، وَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمُوهُ فَأَفْطِرُوا ، فَإِنْ غُمَّ عَلَيْكُمْ فَأَكْمِلُوا الْعِدَّةَ ثَلَاثِينَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: "I am amazed at those people who go ahead and begin fasting before the month of Ramadan (before the moon is sighted), whereas the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'When you see it (the Ramadan moon), fast, and when you see it (the Shawwal moon), break the fast (i.e. celebrate Eid); then if the sky is clouded over for you, complete the count of thirty days.'"
