5092. It was narrated from Abān: "Qatādah narrated to us that it was conveyed to him that when the Prophet of Allāh ﷺ saw the new crescent, he would say: 'Hilālu khairin wa rushdin, Hilālu khairin wa rushdin, Hilālu khairin wa rushdin, āmantu billadhī khalaqaka (A new crescent of goodness and guidance, a new crescent of goodness and guidance, a new crescent of goodness and guidance; I believe in the One Who created you).' three times. Then he would say: 'Al-Ḥamdulillāhil-ladhī dhahaba bi-shahri kadhā wa jā' bi-shahri kadhā (Praise is to Allāh Who has taken away the month of such and such and brought the month of such and such)."
