[Machine] I was told by someone from the people of Sham about the worship of Ibn As-Samit. He said: "When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw the new moon, he would say: Allah is the Greatest. Praise be to Allah. There is no power or strength except with Allah. O Allah, I ask You for the goodness of this month and I seek refuge in You from the evil of destiny and the evil of resurrection."
حَدَّثَنِي مَنْ لَا أَتَّهِمُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الشَّامِ عَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا رَأَى الْهِلَالَ قَالَ اللهُ أَكْبَرُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللهِ اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَ هَذَا الشَّهْرِ وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ الْقَدَرِ وَمِنْ سُوءِ الْمَحْشَرِ
