Using a telescope to see the crescent moon of Ramadan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner asks: Is it sufficient to use a telescope to see the crescent moon of Ramadan, or is it necessary to see it with the naked eye?

Answer:
It is all the same. The important thing is that he sees it with his eye, whether by means of a telescope or with the naked eye; it is all the same. Yes.
