What is the valid time for sighting the crescent moon?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The criterion is the time of sighting, meaning, if they saw it during the day?
The criterion is after sunset on the night of the thirtieth; what comes before that has no standing.
Q: And if it is at night—may Allah reward you—at eleven o'clock at night?
A: It is not considered valid except after sunset on the evening of the twenty-ninth.
