Hadith.1911 - In the narration of Muhammad ibn Qays from Abu Ja'far (as), who said that Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as), said: "When you see the crescent, break your fast, or if a trustworthy Muslim testifies to seeing it, then break your fast.

1911 - وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ
قَالَ أَمِيرُ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : «إِذَا رَأَيْتُمُ اَلْهِلاَلَ فَأَفْطِرُوا أَوْ شَهِدَ عَلَيْهِ عَدْلٌ مِنَ اَلْمُسْلِمِينَ وَ إِنْ لَمْ تَرَوُا اَلْهِلاَلَ إِلاَّ مِنْ وَسَطِ اَلنَّهَارِ أَوْ آخِرِهِ فَ‍ «أَتِمُّوا اَلصِّيٰامَ إِلَى اَللَّيْلِ» فَإِنْ غُمَّ عَلَيْكُمْ فَعُدُّوا ثَلاَثِينَ لَيْلَةً ثُمَّ أَفْطِرُوا».
