The questioner:
If the entry of the month is...
The Shaykh:
al-Wahhab and the like, because your shaykhs are Hanbalis.
The questioner:
If the entry of the month of Sha'ban occurs without sighting, and clouds or rain prevent the view of the crescent, what is valid?
The Shaykh:
Fast thirty days; if it is prevented from its companions, fast thirty days,
The questioner:
But they did not confirm the entry of Sha'ban.
The Shaykh:
Sha'ban does not complete thirty days; the month does not come down to thirty days, the month does not come down to thirty days, and it does not decrease below twenty-nine days. So if they complete Sha'ban to thirty days, and then they fast, they complete thirty days, except if they see Shawwal on the night of the thirtieth. If they see Ramadan on the night of the prostration, the night of Shawwal, otherwise the obligatory thing is that they complete Ramadan to thirty days. If they see the month of Shawwal on the night of the thirtieth, they break the fast, testify
