At the sighting of the new moon (of the lunar month), the Prophet (pbuh) used to supplicate:
“Allahumma ahillahu ‘alaina bil-amni wal-iman, was-salamati wal-Islam, Rabbi wa Rabbuk-Allah, Hilalu rushdin wa khairan (O Allah, let this moon appear on us with security and Iman, with safety and Islam, (O moon!) Your Rabb and mine is Allah. May this moon be bringing guidance and good).”
