رمضان کا چاند دیکھنے کا بیان اور رمضان میں روزہ افطار کرنے کا بیان
راوی:
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَكَرَ رَمَضَانَ فَقَالَ لَا تَصُومُوا حَتَّى تَرَوْا الْهِلَالَ وَلَا تُفْطِرُوا حَتَّى تَرَوْهُ فَإِنْ غُمَّ عَلَيْكُمْ فَأَكْمِلُوا الْعِدَّةَ ثَلَاثِينَ
و حَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِك أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ الْهِلَالَ رُئِيَ فِي زَمَانِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ بِعَشِيٍّ فَلَمْ يُفْطِرْ عُثْمَانُ حَتَّى أَمْسَى وَغَابَتْ الشَّمْسُ
عبداللہ بن عباس رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہما سے روایت ہے کہ فرمایا رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے رمضان کا ذکر کر کے نہ روزہ رکھو جب تک چاند نہ دیکھ لو اور نہ روزے موقوف کرو جب تک چاند نہ دیکھ لو اگر ابر ہو تو تیس روزے پور کرلو ۔ امام مالک کو پہنچا کہ حضرت عثمان بن عفان کے زمانے میں چاند دکھائی دیا تیسرے پہر کو تو روزہ نہ توڑا حضرت عثمان نے یہاں تک کہ شام ہوگئی اور آفتاب ڈوب گیا ۔
Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that once in the time of Uthman ibn Affan the new moon had been seen in the afternoon and Uthman did not break his fast until evening had come and the sun had set.
Yahya said that he had heard Malik say that some one who sees the new moon of Ramadan when he is on his own should start the fast and not break it if he knows that that day is part of Ramadan. He added, "Some one who sees the new moon of Shawwal when he is on his own does not break the fast, because people suspect the reliability of someone among them who breaks the fast. Such people should say, when they sight the new moon, 'We have seen the new moon.' Whoever sees the new moon of Shawwal during the day should not break his fast but should continue fasting for the rest of that day. This is because it is really the new moon of the night that is coming ."
Yahya said that he heard Malik say, "If people are fasting on the day of Fitr thinking that it is still Ramadan and then definite evidence comes to them that the new moon of Ramadan had been seen one day before they began to fast and that they are now into the thirty-first day, then they should break the fast on that day at whatever time the news comes to them. However, they do not pray the id prayer if they hear the news after the sun has begun to decline."
