وَءَايَةٌۭ لَّهُمُ ٱلَّيْلُ نَسْلَخُ مِنْهُ ٱلنَّهَارَ فَإِذَا هُم مُّظْلِمُونَ
A token unto them is night. We strip it of the day, and lo! they are in darkness.

Sahih al-Bukhari
Fasting
Chapter: Should it be said "Ramadan" or "the month of Ramadan"? And whoever thinks that both are permissible
Narrated Ibn `Umar:
I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying, "When you see the crescent (of the month of Ramadan), start fasting, and when you see the crescent (of the month of Shawwal), stop fasting; and if the sky is overcast (and you can't see it) then regard the month of Ramadan as of 30 days."
Sahih al-Bukhari 1900
