3934. Narrated Sahl bin Sa'd رضي الله عنه: The Prophet's Companions neither took as a starting date for the Muslim calendar, the day the Prophet ﷺ had been sent as a Messenger nor the day of his death, but (they took as the starting date for the Muslim calendar), the day of his arrival at Al-Madīna.

Arabic text

3934 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ العَزِيزِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، قَالَ: «مَا عَدُّوا مِنْ مَبْعَثِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَلاَ مِنْ وَفَاتِهِ، مَا عَدُّوا إِلَّا مِنْ مَقْدَمِهِ المَدِينَةَ»
