1558. It was narrated from Abû 'Umair bin Anas from his paternal uncles, that some people saw the crescent moon and came to the Prophet ﷺ, and he told them to break their fast after the sun has risen and to go out for Eid the (morning of the) the following day. (Sahīh)
1557 - أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بِشْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي عُمَيْرِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ عُمُومَةٍ لَهُ، أَنَّ قَوْمًا رَأَوْا الْهِلَالَ، «فَأَتَوْا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَمَرَهُمْ أَنْ يُفْطِرُوا بَعْدَ مَا ارْتَفَعَ النَّهَارُ، وَأَنْ يَخْرُجُوا إِلَى الْعِيدِ مِنَ الْغَدِ»

1. "Commanded the people to break the fast": Even so, it is not necessary that all the people or the people of every city or town should sight the crescent. Instead, if a few people sight the crescent, it becomes enough for other people and cities. 2. "To go out (to a large space in the open air, literally in the desert or Sahwā)": The main thing is that the Eid prayer should be performed in a large open space outside of the habitation or population, because it reflects its significance and grandeur.
