We saw the new moon of Ramadan as we were at Dhit-i-'Irq. We sent a man to Ibn Abbas (Allah be pleased with both of them) to ask him (whether the sighting of a small moon had something of the nature of defect in it). Upon this Ibn 'Abbas (Allah be pleased with both of them) said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had said: Verily Allah deferred its sight, but if (the new moon) is hidden from you, then, complete its number (thirty). (Using translation from Muslim 1088b)
"إِنَّ الله ﷻ قَدْ أمَدَّهُ لرُؤْيته فَإنْ أُغْمى عَلَيكمْ فَأكْملُوا الْعِدَّةَ ".
