"عَنِ ابْن عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ صُومُوا لِرُؤْيَة الْهلالِ، وَأَفْطِروُا لرُؤْيَتِهِ، فَإِنْ غُمَّ عَلَيْكُمْ فَعْدُّوا ثَلاِثِينَ، قُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ! أَوَلا نَتَقَدَّمُ قَبْلَهُ بِيَوْمٍ أَوْ يَومِينِ فَغَضبَ وَقَالَ: لا".

"From Ibn 'Abbas, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Fast when you see the crescent, and break your fast when you see it. If it is hidden from you, then complete thirty (days).' We said: 'O Messenger of Allah! Should we not go ahead of it by a day or two?' He became angry and said: 'No.'"
