وَحَدَّثَنِي ، عَنْ مَالِك ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ ، أَنَّ الْهِلَالَ رُئِيَ فِي زَمَانِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ بِعَشِيٍّ فَلَمْ يُفْطِرْ عُثْمَانُ حَتَّى أَمْسَى وَغَابَتِ الشَّمْسُ
Imam Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) was informed that during the time of Sayyiduna Uthman ibn Affan (may Allah be pleased with him), the moon was sighted in the afternoon, but he did not break his fast until evening came and the sun had set.
