❌ 8. That the when Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم would see the new moon, he would say:

Sufficing with the testimony of one person in seeing the new moon: There is nothing authentic concerning it
❌ 11. “The people looked for the new moon, so I informed the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ that I had sighted it. So, he fasted and commanded the people to fast.”
❌ 12. “A Bedouin man came to the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم and said: ‘O Messenger of Allāh, I have seen the new moon tonight.’ He said: ‘Do you bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped but Allāh and that Muḥammad is the Messenger of Allāh?’ He said: ‘Yes.’ He said: ‘O Bilal, announce to the people that they should fast tomorrow.’”
"And what is correct is that it is not accepted except by the sighting of two just people. And this is what is confirmed from the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم."

________
Opinion of Shaykh al-Muhaddith Sulayman al 'Alwān
Shaykh al 'Alwān, however is of the opinion that it is enough if one just man sees the new moon, and what is looked at is his truthfulness and justness. This is based on the hadith of Ibn 'Umar which was narrated by Abū Dawūd. When he witnessed the moon, he reported the news to Prophet ﷺ and Prophet ﷺ commanded others to fast. Shaykh 'Alwān considers the chain of this narration to be strong. He also mentions that there are a group of scholars who say that two witnesses are needed instead of one, and that they take as dalīl the hadith of 'Abur-Rahmān ibn Zayd ibn Khattāb which says: "So if two witnesses witness, fast and break the fast." In its chain is al-Hajjāj ibn Artā who is weak (Daīf), and every other chain of this Hadīth without the mention of al-Hajjāj is wrong and weak. Indeed there is no doubt that two witnesses are needed to end every month and to begin the rest. The only exception for this is Ramaḍān for which only one witness is enough. For the rest of the months, however, without a doubt two witnesses are needed.

Our Note:
We have mentioned the opinion of two scholars of Hadīth regarding the strength of narration in Abū Dawūd and their respective opinions on whether one or two witnesses suffice for the sighting of the moon for Ramadān.
Shaykh Abū Alī does not consider it to be Sahīh (rather he says it is Munkar) and that two witnesses are needed, while Shaykh al 'Alwān says the chain is strong and Ramadān moon sighting is the exception to the rule that two witnesses are needed (one is enough for Ramadān). This is absolutely fine for scholars to have some differences of opinion [we stated both to clarify]

There is nothing authentic from the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم that he ate after the aṫhān
❌ 16. “If any of you hears the call to the prayer while he has a vessel in his hand, he should not lay it down until he fulfils his need from it.”
❌ 17. “I asked Jābir about a man who wanted to fast and had a vessel in his hand to drink from, then he hears the call (to prayer). Jābir said: “We used to say that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said: ‘He should drink.’”

❌ 19. “Bilāl used to go to the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم while he was having his predawn meal, and I was able to see the marks of where my arrows landed.” I asked: “Was it after dawn?” He said: “After dawn, however, the sun had not yet risen.”
“I ate the suḥūr (pre-dawn meal) with Ḥuthayfah, then we went out to the prayer. When we reached the masjid, we prayed two rakˋāt and the iqāmah for the prayer was made. And there was only a small amount of time between them.” An-Nasā’ī (2474)
After the narration, an-Nasā’ī said, “And we do not know of anyone who narrated it in marfū’ form other than 'Āṣim. [Al-Kubrā (2475) and Tuḥfat al-Ashrāf (3325) ]
❌ 20. “The Iqāmah for the prayer was performed while ˋUmar had a vessel in his hand, so he asked: ‘Should I drink from it, O Messenger of Allāh?’ He said: ‘Yes.’ So, he drank from it.”

Summary on the Hadeeth
“If one of you hears the call (to prayer) and the vessel is still in his hand, let him not put it down until he finished with it.”
(Narrated by Ahmad, 10251; Abu Dawood. 2350)
The scholars of the past and present has differed in its meaning as well as its authenticity.
First of all:
Our sheikh, Al-Sa'd says this hadeeth is weak. He brought the statement of Imam Abu Hatim on its weakness. Then said that it is ghareeb (odd) in its chain as well as its wording. He said the wording goes against what is narrated saheeh, and the foremost is the verse of Allah:
“and eat and drink until the white thread (light) of dawn appears to you distinct from the black thread (darkness of night)” [al-Baqarah 2:187]
And that it also goes against the general meaning of the hadeeth narrated in the saheehain
“Bilaal gives the call to prayer at night, so eat and drink until Ibn Umm Maktoom gives the call to prayer.” (al-Bukhaari and Muslim.)
A sub narrator, Saalim said, "He (ibn Umm Maktoom) was a blind man who would not proclaim the Athaan, unless he was told that the day had [nearly] dawned.” [Al-Bukhari]
