حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ مَسْعَدَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنِي أَيُّوبُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كَتَبَ عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ إِلَى أَهْلِ الْبَصْرَةِ بَلَغَنَا عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏زَادَ:‏‏‏‏ وَإِنَّ أَحْسَنَ مَا يُقْدَرُ لَهُ أَنَّا إِذَا رَأَيْنَا هِلَالَ شَعْبَانَ لِكَذَا وَكَذَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَالصَّوْمُ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لِكَذَا وَكَذَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏إِلَّا أَنْ تَرَوْا الْهِلَالَ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ .

Umar bin Abdul-Aziz wrote (a letter) to the people of Basrah: It has reached us from the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم, like the tradition narrated by Ibn Umar from the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم. This version adds: The best calculation is that when we sight the moon of Sha'ban on such-and-such date, fasting will being on such-and-such dates, Allah willing, except they they sight the moon before that (date).
