إِذَا تَطَوَّقَ الْهِلَالُ فَهُوَ لِلَيْلَتَيْنِ وَ إِذَا رَأَيْتَ ظِلَّ رَأْسِكَ فِيهِ فَهُوَ لِثَلَاثِ لَيَالٍ .
Translation
Ahmad Bin Idrees, from Muhammad Bin Ahmad, from Yaqoub Bin Yazeed, from Muhammad Bin Murazim, from his father, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘When the crescent forms (a visible) encirclement, so it is for the second night, and when you see the shadow of your head in it, so it is for the third night (of that month)’.
