Question:
May Allah bless you, Honorable Shaykh. What is the meaning of the hadith regarding fasting when people fast, and breaking the fast when people break their fast?

Answer:
It means fasting in Ramadan, yes. And breaking the fast from Ramadan is not permissible for anyone to fast except if the fast is announced by the people of fatwa and the authorities in the country. Likewise, the festival is not permissible for anyone to celebrate except with the people, and not before them or after them. This is a deviation from the community of Muslims. Yes.
