May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: A man intended to fast the six days of Shawwal starting on a Saturday. When he fasted the first day, which was Saturday, he received an order to travel. Is he sinful for fasting only on that Saturday? And does it count toward the six days of fasting?
