حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَمْدَانَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ التُّسْتَرِيُّ، بِعَبَّادَانَ قَالَ: نَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ الصَّيْرَفِيُّ قَالَ: نَا عَبْدُ السَّلَامِ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِي خَالِدٍ الدَّالَانِيِّ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْبَخْتَرِيِّ قَالَ:
أَهْلَلْنَا هِلَالَ ذِي الْحِجَّةِ قَمَرًا ضَخْمًا، الْمُقَلِّلُ يَقُولُ: مِنْ لَيْلَتَيْنِ، وَالْمُكْثِرُ يَقُولُ: مِنْ ثَلَاثٍ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا مَكَّةَ لَقِيتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ يَوْمِ التَّرْوِيَةِ، فَعَدَّ لِي مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ، فَقُلْتُ: إِنَّا أَهْلَلْنَاهُ قَمَرًا ضَخْمًا، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ " أَمَدَّهُ إِلَى رُؤْيَتِهِ

✧ We sighted the new moon of Dhū al-Ḥijjah as a large crescent. Those who minimized it said: “From two nights,” and those who maximized it said: “From three nights.” When we arrived in Makkah, I met Ibn ‘Abbās and asked him about the Day of Tarwiyah. He counted for me from that day. I said: “We sighted it as a large crescent.” He said: “The Prophet ﷺ extended it to its sighting.”
