Question:
The questioner says: A man fasted based on the sighting in his home country, which is one day later than this country, and he will remain here until the festival, if Allah wills. What should he do if the number of days in the month is twenty-nine days according to this country?
Answer:
If he fasted twenty-nine days, he breaks his fast with this country, and since he has fasted twenty-nine days, that is sufficient. However, if it was less than twenty-nine days, he makes up the days that were short of twenty-nine after the festival.
