Sunan Ibn Majah 1652 (Book 7, Hadith 15) #31004
Fasting Announced After Confirmation of Belief

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ instructed Bilal to announce that the people should fast the following day after a Bedouin confirmed his belief in Allah and Muhammad as His Messenger.

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas said: "A Bedouin came to the Prophet and said: 'I have seen the new crescent tonight.’ He said: 'Do you bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah ?’ He said: 'Yes.’ He said: 'Get up, O Bilal, and announce to the people that they should fast tomorrow.’" Abu 'Ali said: "This is how it was narrated from Walid bin Abu Thawr and Hasan bin 'Ali. It was also narrated from Hammad bin Salamah, but he did not mention Ibn 'Abbas. He said: 'And he announced that they should perform the prayer and that they should fast'."
حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الأَوْدِيُّ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا زَائِدَةُ بْنُ قُدَامَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا سِمَاكُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ـ ـ فَقَالَ أَبْصَرْتُ الْهِلاَلَ اللَّيْلَةَ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ: ‏"‏ أَتَشْهَدُ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ نَعَمْ ‏.‏ قَالَ: ‏"‏ قُمْ يَا بِلاَلُ فَأَذِّنْ فِي النَّاسِ أَنْ يَصُومُوا غَدًا
