The ruling on one who has intercourse while forgetting during the day of Ramadan
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: If a person has sexual intercourse while forgetting during the daytime of Ramadan, does his fast become invalid? And what is the evidence?
Answer:
Yes, if he has intercourse, his fast becomes invalid, whether he did so while forgetting or intentionally. This is because no exception was reported for the one who forgets; this did not occur. The one who had intercourse in Ramadan, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) made the expiation obligatory upon him and did not ask him, “Were you forgetting, or did you not forget?” Yes.
