“My paternal uncles among the Ansar who were among the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ told me: ‘The new crescent of Shawwal was covered with clouds, so we fasted the next day. Then some riders came at the end of the day and testified to the Prophet ﷺ that they had seen the new crescent the night before. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded them to break their fast and to go out to offer the ‘Eid prayer the following morning.’”  

حَدَّثَنِي عُمُومَتِي مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالُوا أُغْمِيَ عَلَيْنَا هِلاَلُ شَوَّالٍ فَأَصْبَحْنَا صِيَامًا فَجَاءَ رَكْبٌ مِنْ آخِرِ النَّهَارِ فَشَهِدُوا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُمْ رَأَوُا الْهِلاَلَ بِالأَمْسِ فَأَمَرَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ يُفْطِرُوا وَأَنْ يَخْرُجُوا إِلَى عِيدِهِمْ مِنَ الْغَدِ  

[Machine] From the generality of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ, it is reported that a group came to the Prophet ﷺ and testified that they had seen the new moon the previous day. The Prophet ﷺ ordered them to break their fast and to go out for it on the next day. Shu'bah said, "I see it [the new moon] at the end of the day."  

عَنْ عُمُومَتِهِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ جَاءَ رَكْبٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَشَهِدُوا أَنَّهُمْ رَأَوْهُ بِالْأَمْسِ يَعْنُونَ الْهِلَالَ فَأَمَرَهُمْ أَنْ يُفْطِرُوا وَأَنْ يَخْرُجُوا مِنَ الْغَدِ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ أُرَاهُ مِنْ آخِرِ النَّهَارِ

حَدَّثَنِي عُمُومَةٌ لِي مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ غُمَّ عَلَيْنَا هِلَالُ شَوَّالٍ فَأَصْبَحْنَا صِيَامًا فَجَاءَ رَكْبٌ مِنْ آخِرِ النَّهَارِ فَشَهِدُوا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُمْ رَأَوْا الْهِلَالَ بِالْأَمْسِ فَأَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الناسَ أَنْ يُفْطِرُوا مِنْ يَوْمِهِمْ وَأَنْ يَخْرُجُوا لِعِيدِهِمْ مِنَ الْغَدِ
