Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on the one who breaks his fast on the first day of Ramadan, which was determined by astronomical calculations, and does he have to make up this day?
Answer:
The Muslim fasts with the Muslims, and it is not permissible for him to break his fast while the Muslims are fasting. He fasts with the Muslims and breaks his fast with them when they break it. It is not permissible to deviate or differ. The saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him): "Fasting is the day you fast, and the festival of sacrifice is the day you sacrifice." So the Muslim is with the congregation of the Muslims and does not deviate from them. Yes.
