2339. It was reported from Rib'i bin Hīrāsh, from a man among the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ, who said: "The people differed (about sighting the crescent of Shawwāl) on the last day of Ramadān. Then two Bedouins arrived and testified before the Prophet ﷺ, that they had seen the crescent the previous evening. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ ordered the people to break their fast."
In his narration, Khalaf (one of the narrators) added: "And that they go to the Muṣalla the (following) morning." (Saḥih)
