The questioner : May Allah reward you.
The Shaykh: The report of a trustworthy person establishes the crescent by the sighting of the trustworthy person.
The questioner: Yes.

The questioner: Yes, exactly. Now, if, for example, no fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) is stirred up.
The Shaykh: It is not possible. May Allah guide you. I am giving you a real example: one household divides against itself.
