Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling for a woman who has a missed day from Ramadan to make up, and she intended from the night to fast to make it up, but she did not wake up until Fajr? Is it permissible for her to break her fast on that day, given that she intended to fast it from the night?

Answer:
No. If she intended from the night and did not wake up until after Fajr, she continues fasting because she had the intention, even if she did not eat the pre-dawn meal. However, if she is unable to fast without the pre-dawn meal and she ate, then she breaks her fast. Yes.
